Mike posted : Reddit is a site where people can submit links. People either ignore, vote they like, or vote off topic. The main page has a selection of default forum things and they are the most popular site topics.

In theory, the highest rated stuff is at the top. If you submit something and someone likes it, you gain link karma. If you post something and someone likes it, you gain comment karma.

In theory the best stuff ever of that part of the day (main page refreshes constantly but it's usually totally new every 5 hours) is visible.

You may have to sort through some garbage and lose the innocence of your eyes in the process, but you find some really great and funny material.

Hmm. I see. So basically a text based amihotornot without the flesh. Sounds pretty boring. Still not understanding the stigma around it though. I have this feeling that I'm supposed to be ashamed if I visit that site.

No... not at all.

Reddit is amazing. Once you can get beyond the kittens and athiests, it's a great resource for knowledge and amusement.

Follow the rules, and whatever you do, don't go to r/spacedicks

Reddit /ˈrɛdɪt/,[3] stylized as reddit, is a social news and entertainment website where registered users submit content in the form of either a link or a text ("self") post. Other users then vote the submission "up" or "down", which is used to rank the post and determine its position on the site's pages and front page. Reddit is based in San Francisco, California, USA

WTH is Reddit and the stigma around it?

I've only recently been exposed to it when I found it included WoW posts and I was able to subscribe to it through the Google Reader. Some of the posts were from people saying they were just starting the game and looking for people to help them so I sent them messages in an attempt to get them recruited to our guild. Over the break my step daughter was home from school and I mentioned this to her and she looked at me and responded with "what are you doing on Reddit" like I had just told her I was posting under the personals on Craigslist. And now I see some of you taking jabs at it also. So what gives? Clue me in.
