What is a ‘Reddit’?
Reddit.com is a site in which people can submit stories, links, pictures, etc that are voted by the rest of the Reddit base. According to Wikipedia, it was started in 2005 by graduates of the University of Virginia. The links are voted up or down, and users are encouraged to comment to accumulate ‘karma’. Other users give comments karma when they feel it is a good comment. It’s similar to Digg, but different at the same time. With Reddit, users are more empowered as they can create their own Subreddit, their own Reddit category.This Subreddit can be modified to the administrator’s wants and needs, as it allows custom CSS.
Ok…So What?
Today, I created a Subreddit titled ‘GameDeals‘. It’s exactly what it says, its a Reddit that collects links/ stories to video game, console, etc deals. I created it after someone suggested it in a link I submitted to the Gaming Reddit (The link was to woot which had refrub Xbox 360 Pro for >$150. They are sold out now). I need people to help submit links and participate in this new Subreddit to help it grow, and to help other Redditors receive good deals on their video game purchases. So go now!
*Again, sorry for the lack of posts. I’m working on a guide right now and it’s long…very long(It’s 4 pages already on MS Word, and I have only written the introduction…!). I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait, so why don’t you subscribe?
