SoylentNews is people
SoylentNews
So, as per usual, I like to occasionally check the pulse on the community to make sure that people for the most part are happy and satisfied with the day-to-day operation of the site. For those of you who are new to the community, first, let me welcome you and explain how these work.
When I open the floor to the community, the intent is to provide a venue to discuss anything related to site operations, content, and anything along those lines. I actively review and comment on these posts, and if one issue pops up multiple times in comments, I generally run follow up articles to try and help address issues the community feels is important before someone decides to take rehash and form a spinoff. Feel free to leave whatever thoughts you want below.
In contrary to my usual posts, I don't have that much to say to this, so to both the community and editorial team's relief, I'll cut this off right here before it becomes Yet Another NCommander Novel.

I think we all prefer those topics. I know when I submit I really try to stick to tech & science, and even try to minimize social science and psychology stuff because there's a cadre of folks in the community that complain about those. But some days there are only so many good stories in the regular places. Fixing that is a function of more submitters and more sources.
I would say that my perception of participation differs from what you've perceived. The numbers of comments are about the same, but there are a lot of usernames I don't recognize that are posting more now. That's a good thing.
What sort of stories, specifically, would you like to see more of and discuss? Because if it's "graphene" or "Tesla," I can hook you up. ;-)
