Slashdot finally to get CSS makeover

It’s about time.

After almost 8 years, Slashdot’s HTML is finally getting an overhaul. For now the changes are almost entirely under the hood, as we migrate the current skin to CSS

I can’t bring up the Slashcode site right now (they slashdotted themselves!), but I’m betting that they’ll see a pretty substantial bandwidth savings when all is said and done.

Stumble It!

    I just had a chance to see it, thought it was funny that they slashdotted themselves. :)

    CSS looks pretty good, I like the newer style.
