I was about to leave for school this evening when Pat IMed me to tell me that I had made the home page of Slashdot. How exciting! Apparently, someone had taken notice of my blog software comparison chart and posted a link. That’s so cool!
I also made DayPop last week, which was my own personal milestone for “making it big”. Now if I made it onto the MetaFilter and Something Positive homepages, that would round out the list of web sites that I read habitually.
