Segfault (http://segfault.org segfault.org) (1998-2001) was a popular humor website which posted fake news reports on hacker-related topics on a near-daily basis. The range of topics was approximately the same as that covered and regularly discussed on the weblog Slashdot — including free software, Internet phenomena, programming, and technology in general. The name "segfault" refers to the segmentation fault, a computer software error.
