Apparently almost 2.2 million web pages are under construction. (Most of the top ten references are anti-under-construction-image pages.) Only 3600 are not.
There are a lot (about 120,000 by Google’s estimate) of friendly people out there on the web who actually welcome you to their pages. I wonder if they’re as friendly in person?
Just under 2 million people say hello (not counting programmers). Slightly more say goodbye. (Several are quite rude about it.)
What can we deduce from these facts?
- There are about 2.2036 million pages (in English) on the world wide web, most of which are unfinished.
- People are happier for you to leave their pages than they are for you to visit them.
- If you’ve actually read this far, you’ve obviously overstayed your welcome. Please leave, or I won’t bother to fi
In the interests of full disclosure, yes, I admit I was one of the “welcome” people. http://web.archive.org/web/20010718020437/http://peterjanes.homeip.net/
