Got Slashdotted from comment ?

Today i got a really big suprised on my incoming traffic and it’s all from Slashdot (someone post a link to one of my previous post on the comment there). The truth is im surprised on how big Slashdot effect can be, eventhough my page is not on the Slashdot frontpage, i got more than traffic than the usual traffic (got an increased of 1000 or more because of one link on the slashdot comment)

Now i’m just wondering .. what happen if i got my page into the frontpage of Slashdot ? i’m pretty sure (99.99%) .. this site is already dead by now (every HTTP Request goes timeout), or even worse i got my site suspended .. but i’m sure this increased amount of traffic is for today only so i do not need to change anything

Anyway by posting this, i just want to say many thanks to the person that put a link to this page on the slashdot comment page :D

As a note, the only thing changed because of this i got an increased impression from my adsense account but just as i thought, there’s no change in the actual revenue itself (because .. everyone on slashdot can be considered as a geek that does not like to see ads, or already filtered them)

So tell us which page this was, so we don’t have to go on searching slashdot ourselves. :-)
