Ask HN: How do I get on top of HN?

Swombat gives a pretty complete answer to that here: http://swombat.com/2011/1/13/how-to-get-your-startup-on-hack...

The links are rated with an algorithm, which equates to roughly points/time^2. If you are able to get several upvotes in a fairly short amount of time, that ratio will be high enough for you to get to the front page, where you hopefully get upvoted more. Don't try to create bogus accounts, as there are spam prevention measures in place.

Ok. Did and admin just "put" this post at the top of the pile ? Either that or the algorithm has an an "ask and you shall receive" feature.

Ooops.. didn't realize I was browsing the "new" section :) Guess it's not that easy !

Post something that we find interesting.
