I used to visit Slashdot quite often, but if Dice Holdings decide to switch the interface to what is currently known as "Beta", I'll have to find another site for my "stuff that matters"-fix.
So, Pipedot, what sites can you recommend for a "maybe-ex" /. user?
You can read usenet through an account at eternal-september.org or aioe.org and then use a news reader like Thunderbird or Pan .
Alternatively you can get there through Google Groups or, if you want an interface which resembles Slashdot, through s'qute .
Here's an article about the /. refugees on Usenet.
