Regarding the "FAIL" critism: FAIL is not just a word but a meme used on the web to describe something that went wrong. History of the Fail Meme: http://www.redorbit.com/news/technology/1306942/memes_help_k...

About the Submit criticism: I also submit stories from other blogs and not every blog from TheNextWeb.org. Only stuff I think works for the Hacker News Community. But I will be more critical before I post links to our own blogs from now on.

Thanks..
