I like this news. Myself ,being in the Programming industry, choose to believe the site has problems due to increased traffic. The more people that visit a site the slower it is. This stock split and attempt to attract new investors is possibly needed for investing in better equipment, faster servers, etc. The name is kewl too, in the northeast there is a lot of hype on the letters WOW. Many people are searching the Internet for information on it. This hype however is not in relation to WOWS but does attract attention.
