The Atheist Spot - Now with Tagging!

We just launched some exciting new features that we hope make it easier both to submit links, and to consume them:

  1. Tags! When you submit a link, you can specify any number of tags that go along with that story. You can then browse stories by tag, see what's popular from the tag cloud, or even subscribe to the RSS feed of a given tag. Powerful stuff.
  2. To simplify the submit process, we've removed the "captcha" that was previously required on the final step (where you have to figure out what the jumbled mess of letters spells). We are going to try this out, but if we find that spam increases we'll have to bring this back unfortunately.
  3. We've added both a Feedback button along the top right (to encourage feedback from our users...something we love more then a Dawkins debate!), and a message for first time visitors to help explain what the site is all about.
We're pretty excited about some of the feedback we've been hearing, and so we're working as fast as we can to continue improving the experience for you guys. Keep that feedback coming!

Now go check out the fun new stuff:
