I'm pretty sure that I'm not the only one who read slashdot on this forum, but it's worth posting becuase there's always something fun and interesting on it.

http://slashdot.org/

Recent notable geeky things:
71% of all spam servers are in the Peoples Republic of China
A commentary on Star Wars: Ep III.
SpaceShipOne, a private enthusiast spacecraft made it into very low orbit and has been taking pictures which are posted on the web. Linkie-link
And more.

It's one of two or three of my homepages (go tabbed browsing!)

Wow, I am so impressed by the SpaceShipOne people! I wonder how much a single flight costs? Their FAQ say's they're using a hybrid engine that runs on.... laughing gas and rubber? Is that all?
