slashdot effect
a.k.a. slashdotting, slashdotted, etc.
refers to the effect a slashdot post has on a website. because of slashdot’s gigantic audience, any link placed there quickly goes down; very few sites can handle such huge traffic coming to their site.
though the slashdot effect is similar to a denial of service, most webmasters don’t mind the huge publicity and traffic to their site.
1. an immediate surge in hit rate on a webserver caused by an announcement on a high-traffic website; a nivenesque “flash crowd”.
2. an unintentional denial of service to a website as a result of a surge in hit rate following an announcement on a high-traffic website.
