Submitting Articles

Digg, Reddit and Slashdot are community news sites, Delicious is a social bookmarking site - all three allow you to share stories you find interesting with other people. To make the process easier, you can use the links provided to assist in submitting an article you think would be of interest to others to these sites.

Submitting to Digg

To submit articles to Digg, you need to register for an account which you can do for free here.
Click the "Submit to Digg" link and the web address for the story will be automatically filled in for you. All you need to do is choose a suitable title, write a brief description and choose a category.
Once the article has been added it will be available to other users to 'Digg' if they like it - the more Diggs an item gets, the more prominently it appears on the Digg homepage.

Submitting to Slashdot

Slashdot doesn't require you to register for an account to submit items. Click the "Submit to Slashdot" link and fill in your name and email address, unless you wish to remain anonymous.
The subject will be automatically filled out, but you can change this to something you feel more relevant if you wish, then choose an appropriate section and topic for the story.
The last step is to provide a short description for the article. This is initially filled out with a summary of the story and the web address, but you can change the summary to something you think is more appropriate. If the story is picked by the Slashdot Editors, then it'll appear on the site.
