slashdot effect

An effect where a document on a WWW server is
linked to from another, popular, site, with the resultant
traffic overloading the server so that a connection cannot be
made to it. This is especially likely if the server is
running Microsoft IIS.

The term was coined by readers of the Unix advocacy {web
site} slashdot.org (http://slashdot.org/).

(jargon)
slashdot effect
n.

1. Also spelled “/. effect”; what is said to have happened when a website
becoming virtually unreachable because too many people are hitting it after
the site was mentioned in an interesting article on the popular Slashdot
news service. The term is quite widely used by /. readers, including
variants like “That site has been slashdotted again!”

2. In a perhaps inevitable generation, the term is being used to describe
any similar effect from being listed on a popular site. This would better
be described as a flash crowd. Differs from a DoS attack in being
unintentional.
