[OT]: The Keys to Slashdot

[Scott Elcomb]

I've been a /. member for a while, but really haven't posted much.

Today, I happened to catch a post
(http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=07/05/31/1933243) on
commented on it early.  Subsequently, my post has been modded up more
than any other I've made (5, Interesting).

While the points I made were (IMO) valid, is the "key to success" on
Slashdot posting ASAP after an article becomes available?

[This might sound much like a "newbie" question to some...  The only
response I could possibly give being: I am always learning and will
always be a noob.]

the rule of reason is the natural sovereign of a free people." - Al
