Same here... 31494, and I completely stopped reading Slashdot right around the time I discovered reddit.

What did it for me was the much higher volume of stories on reddit. So much of the time, I just didn't care about the Slashdot front page. This is still true on reddit, but at least with more stories there's a better chance of a decent hit rate.

That said, even reddit is getting less interesting these days.
