New Era for Slashdot
As a geek, Slashdot was always the place to first hear about breaking stories. Today Rob “CmdrTaco” Malda announced that he was leaving the legendary tech news reporting website that he started in 1997. For a lot of us this is bittersweat, as it reminds us that we have been doing this tech thing for a while, making what we do a career and not a hobby.
I remember being introduced to Slashdot around 1998 by other techies and have continued to read the stories posted since then, first by visiting the site religiously throughout the day and now by waiting for the updates in my RSS reader.
Thank you CmdrTaco for the last 14 years and good luck on your new adventures.
