Is it just me, or has News.YC slowed down in terms of new stories / comments?

I don't have any numbers to back this up since it's just a feeling I've been having. But it seems like the rate of new frontpage-worthy stories has slowed down. This might be because those who visited for YC's winter cycle left, since posting on News.YC was an incentive to get accepted.

If it has slowed down then that's very odd. This is a great community. I'd be interested to see the daily page view counts / submission counts over the last month or two.

Unique IPs/day are still climbing. Pageviews per IP are down, however. I think your theory that it may have something to do with application cycles is correct. There are now about 50 people who are extremely busy with new startups.

I have noticed this slowdown as well. Mainly links lingering on the frontpage for more than usual. Perhaps it is cyclical.
