| #4 No doubt there are a bunch of "null" websites in the count. But the interesting part is the slope of curve which looks to be exponentially increasing. |

| #2 I have lost track of how many people I have dealt with over the years who had a web site but the developer died or just quit taking their calls, they had no passwords and the URL wasn't even registered to them. Then the registration lapsed and a squatter sat on it hoping to make a fast buck. I wonder exactly how many of these web sites are "Under Construction, this URL can be yours," or just throw an Apache stack error of some sort. Or are subdomains being counted as stand alone "websites." More magic numbers... |

Make a 'ring' of like minded people with complementary, goals and you too, could make a storm on the internet. - or a tempest in a tea pot |
