To those of you who've read my "Ajax on Rails" article at:

http://www.onlamp.com/pub/a/onlamp/2005/06/09/rails_ajax.html

I really like to get this slashdotted in my ongoing effort to get more
exposure for Ruby and Rails. I made a submission myself, but that's no
guarantee that it'll get approved and posted.

If more of you also submit this, I think it will increase the chances of
success. If you'd like to do so, just go here:

But surely if they find you are courting their attention they'll ignore
you? I thought people got slashdotted because others thought their work
worthy enough not because the author organised a campaign?

I'm not saying it isn't worthy of being slashdotted, more that I'm not
sure you are going the right way about it. I guess now that you've done
this we'll have to hope they don't check for campaigns and slashdot you
anyway.
