“The era of procrastination, of half-measures, of soothing and baffling expedients, of delays, is coming to a close. In its place we are entering a period of consequences…”

Hello Prof Goose,
I submit this on REDDIT and nothing happens when I check their new list--what gives? Are we being censored?
Bob Shaw in Phx,Az Are Humans Smarter than Yeast?
Yes, it seems that is the case. It has been for about a month (which is why I quit asking people to do it--futile gesture).
It's only when different people with different upmodding histories, etc., reddit and digg for us that it really matters any more.
Oh well. Not much to be done on that other than complain, which I encourage you to do. :)
I don't think we are being censored per say. Both digg and reddit have instituted new rules to keep people from gaming the system.
It makes sense, you want the opinions from the broader community. A highly vocal minority would otherwise skew the voting results.
And you have to admit our message isn't very popular with those online communities. And there are so many Paris Hilton and iPhone stories that need attention.
Besides have you ever read any of the comments our stories get? The ignorance is stunning.
The direct link to The Independent is on digg and on reddit . These communities prefer the direct link to the original article.
Agreed. In fact, it really irritates them, when you post a link to a blog entry about an article, rather than to the article itself. Unless you have a weighty response or critique to the article, they see it as useless blogwhoring.
