"I'm rather excited to get going with Soylent and to watch it grow. Nay, help it grow. I have lurked in /. for more than a decade (note: I'm not the same username over there, I know, how sneaky), and always wished I could have been involved with the beginning. So this is a great opportunity, and I joined as soon as I saw what Soylent was doing. Not to mention the fact that I felt right at home with the old style. It's very comfortable.

So here's a question for everyone. Are we going to be the same as slashdot? A clone that focuses as entirely as possible on tech related news? Or will we branch out to other topics? I'm interested to see either way. I posted a comment to this effect in one of our two existing polls, and it may be a community-wide assumption, but I do think it merits a discussion."

    I was around on /. for over a decade as well. One thing I really wanted to mention is that a lot of the articles on say space, or physics or the like, while often low in comments, please do keep these coming as they are awesome. Just because I don't join in a conversation doesn't mean that I don't really enjoy reading the summary and clicking through to the article itself.

    Some of the pop stuff is mildly entertaining, but please lets not forget the original focus. The real articles are the main course, pop culture and the like are merely a garnish on the side of the plate.
