I am always amazed how sites can launch and draw traffic. Then add a feature that just takes off. The facebook chat feature that lets you have an IM / Chat session with another facebook friend has over 1 billion messages a day. 1 billion is a huge number. In recent months we all have become immune to million / billion / trillion because of our Nations spending. Don’t let the numbers mix, 1 billion is a lot (I mean a lot) of traffic.

That is just a massive amount of chat sessions. For a any site to get that amount of usage from one of it’s tools or features is a sign that you are doing something right.

I have been neglecting my blog for a while. I moved jobs and have been busy outside of work with the kids. To catch up I will have to figure out some type of series to blog about. For now, consider this a “I’m back” post.

From plane crashes, The “tonight show”, GM, and our Government spending money faster than we can print it. I think I should be able to come up with some posts.

I will leave you with the great digital question? 486dx or 486sx?
