Whoah, I'd almost completely forgotten Kuro5hin, and a lot of other people obviously have, too, as the site is a ghost town. It was a really neat pre-reddit user-generated social media site; kind of a more democratic Slashdot. I knew the founder in some capacity (I don't even remember how/why, now, or their name...maybe because I worked on Squid or because I worked in Perl), and used to advertise my old company on Kuro5hin to be able to send some money their way.
I quite liked it, and there was a brief time when I divided my time between Slashdot and Kuro5hin, as I currently divide my time between reddit and HN.
