Slashdot
Slashdot is a technology news and discussion platform founded in 1997 by Rob "CmdrTaco" Malda. Originally named *Chips and Dips*, it rebranded to Slashdot.org later that year with support from Jeff "Hemos" Bates. The site has been influential in online tech communities, focusing on open-source software, Linux, and emerging technologies. Slashdot offers news aggregation, curating user-submitted and editor-selected tech news, particularly in programming and IT. It features community discussions with threaded comment sections for moderated debates among users. The "Ask Slashdot" forum, launched in 1998, allows users to ask technical questions to the community. Additionally, Slashdot maintains a searchable archive of over 163,000 stories, preserving tech history since the late 1990s. The platform operates under Slashdot Media, which also manages SourceForge.
