Completely off topic, but I need help ;-)

For many years now my standard "I have 30 seconds (or minutes) to fill in, what's 
happening in the world" web site has been slashdot, but it seems to be completely 
off the air for now.

I'm looking for suggestions for alternates that are worth using while waiting 
for a build, or just to give me some interesting. The less video, the better :-)

Thanks

Alex.

Slashdot was having some hiccups transferring to new servers.
They seem to have recovered nicely now.

Slashdot is definitely still there. Make sure you are going to 
https://slashdot.org . I suppose they may have been having a problem the 
last time you tried the site, but it is definitely up and running right
