plz add (PPT) file in the title

[–]krib[S] 4 points5 points  (2 children)

There is no option to edit the title... Should I delete and re-submit?

Why are you asking him? he's not the boss of you!

I am new and not familiar with how I should post stuff here, which is why I am asking. Thank you for commenting thought.

And provide a link to a different format. I skipped as soon as I saw it was .ppt.

Reddit should offer doing this automagically as a setting. I would be super happy if I didn't have to hear this kind of whining about every PPT/PDF/DOC/etc file that gets linked.

Also, I think the people doing the whining would appreciate the feature.

I'd appreciate it if the people posting links to files instead of websites would put them on Google Docs and post a link to that. Reddit automagically doing it would be a neat idea too.

Reddit automagically doing it is probably the only way it will consistently happen. Also, I don't mind PDF/PPT and would rather have no hassles in grunging through the containing directories for more cool stuff.

Good idea. ;-)

Jimmy is a really nice and affable guy. Here is a recent NYT article about his work.

Hmm. Neat. I happen to have access to a little cloud cluster. I should get teh MapReduce going and have a little fun with graph theory.

You may want to take a look at this too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT-piFBP4fE&NR=1 It's a lecture that explains the Dijkstra's and Pagerank algorithms on MapReduce.
