I clicked a random link (randomwebsite.com) and read that you could create your own slashdot discussion by typing the URL:

http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=XXX
where XXX is whatever you want the topic to be

This doesn't work anymore. It now tells you there is no such story and you can either make a journal entry, or submit a story. Obviously the website was a bit old.

So, I made a random journal entry. Do I win a price now?
