I normally never visit it, but it is available.
- yen223 13y ago"I normally never visit it" Therein lies the problem :) It doesn't matter if the parent visits it, if no one else does.
- nostrademons 13y agoThen exploit this market inefficiency for yourself and fix that. I try to make it a point to visit the /newest page, and find that I have disproportionate influence on the content of Hacker News as a result. At slow times, it only takes about 3-4 votes in quick succession for a story to crack the top 30 on the front page. If a story is sitting on /newest with 3 votes, you can be the one that starts a voting cascade that brings it to the top. And as an added bonus, if you add an insightful comment, you can rake in hundreds of karma points as your comment is the first thing that thousands of readers see.
- nutanc 13y agoI would say, now would be a good time to post something, as a lot of people would have checked out /newest after reading your comment :)
- vxNsr 13y agoWow, I didn't know what that link was and never bothered to find out... I assumed it was something like a suggestion box or something.
- tokenadult 13y agoI visit the Ask section daily, and indeed found this thread by doing so.
