    Slashdot down? *gasp*

    Is it true for anyone else? I'm getting an error whenever I try to access the site. Oddly enough I can ping it though....

    The service is not available. Please try again later.
    -edit-
    It's got to be something with the server, just did a tracert and it gets there perfectly fine.

    I receive the same error.

    She was so Blonde, she spent 20 minutes looking at the orange juice can because it said "Concentrate."

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.
