Please help me get "Ajax on Rails" Slashdotted

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:

http://slashdot.org/submit.pl

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.

Thanks!

And thanks to those of you who helped (whether or not it was effective).

Looks like I was more of a doom-monger than necessary. Should get more interest. Well done.
