Greetings Soylentils! And welcome to SoylentNews!

We are here to deliver the best community-sourced news, catered for all manner of nerd! Because this is a grassroots based platform, the content feeds are powered by readers like you. Our main objective is to highlight news stories on the web that are of importance to everyone, but especially nerds. In addition, SoylentNews will strive to go beyond simple news-aggregation, with some core principles:

• Providing a soapbox for experts to discuss their profession and solicit questions from a curious audience.
• Allowing the community to comment, without any mandatory registration.
• Staying mindful of the community's needs and wants while avoiding changes to satisfy an overarching corporate agenda.

We want to make this your source for news about technology, art, and science. We are the new kid on the block and are adapting quickly to satisfy our community's needs, as we look forward to exceeding your expectations and pushing boundaries like never before. Lastly, there will be no changes in format without a general consensus from the community. Thank you for stopping by and enjoy the ride!

  Thanks for the effort!

  The "Submit Story" link does seem to be broken, so I don't think anyone should blame CF for posting a story here...

  For now, could you please try using the forums to submit stories until it gets fixed? The address is http://sylnt.us/call-for-stories [sylnt.us]

  Regards

  I can interestingly verify that I'm unable to moderate this article because I already posted to it :) So that said, instead of upmodding the link from clone141166, I'll repost it here- here is the link to submit and track bugs-

    It looks like the story submission thing is fixed for some people already, so I guess they went and locked that thread...

    For a lot of other people (including me) it's still broken, but there's a ticket for it on the bug tracker:
