Just installed it on Firefox, and it's awesome. It shows you what ranking the site is overall; so Yahoo is number one, google number three, etc. Just kind of cool to see how your favorite websites are ranked. For instance, I was surprised to find that a site I use all the time for work is number 1600 overall, but space.com comes in at 3,600. If you're interested in getting it, go to alexa.com, but forewarning: it does transmit your user data to Alexa. Then again though, your data gets transmitted whenever you visit any website, although just to the owner of the website.

Unfortunately, it doesn't look like YWS is ranked, but ah well. Maybe someday that'll change.

lol, since I've installed the Alexa toolbar, YWS has moved up 200,000 spots! The site is now almost in the top 1,000,000.

Just goes to show you how useless such traffic rankings are; that is, unless you're in the top 100,000.

Hahaha... it's still doing better than www.snoink.com. :P

Moth and Myth <- My comic! :D



Daddy Long Legs are more closely related to crabs than spiders and somehow the idea of crablike creatures with spider legs that have escaped the entrappings of the primordial sea and now crawl over land and can walk up and down walls and ceilings creeps me more than I can adequately describe.
