This is pretty funny. At a previous place of employment we were trying to crack down on web usage. One of the sites that seemed to get the most hits was weatherbug.com. We discovered that there were so many users with this "stupid" application on their desktop that told them the weather, but collectively everyone's little weatherbug applet was hitting the web like a zillion times per minute**. We tried to get people do stop using the app. "Look out the fscking window" wasn't working. People seemed to be hooked on the app like it was crack or something. So as an alternative, we ended up banning access to weatherbug.com. So now that weatherbug is available for Linux it seems that they are easing ever more closer to world domination LOL. ** Estimate. -- Albert W. Hopkins -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
