-_-; Sorry, I still need to completely get the hang of the way this site works. I thought top-level posts were discussions you really wanted to draw people’s attentions to?
Yes, but what goes where is something of a matter of feel. In general, if you haven’t worked up a piece with substantiating argument or it isn’t urgent (and not much is urgent), it should go in discussion. If it’s received with enthusiasm, make it top level.
I don’t remember if there’s a procedure for actually moving a post with its comments from discussion to top level.
If your post is just a link with a brief description it will generally fit better in the discussion section, unless there is a lot of interest in it (like the recent Ben Goertzel post). Or in other words, if people really want their attention drawn to it.
This would be more appropriate to post in the discussion section, rather than as a top-level post.

That is basically my reply.
