jZnat's Journal: What's with the random tip bar now?

Slashdot journal entries can be automatically submitted as stories

That's great, I know! I did it once and got over 1000 comments as a matter of fact, so no need to remind me. This isn't documented in the FAQ (then again, the FAQ is quite dated in some aspects), so I'm going to assume it's something new being tried starting today-ish. If Slashdot can gather a large database of tips, this might be interesting (like the random quotes on the bottom of the page typically are).
