No, pretty sure it was weather, reported
by a reliable source...but do not recall
which reliable source (redherring? maybe
cnet/news.com).

But I would have guessed business news/stocks
would be number one...and maybe it is. You
can always cook the numbers, maybe the stats
were for a particular portal.

And that brings us to the idea of full service
portals--news, weather, sports, nudies...I just
dont understand why big portals like AOL or Yahoo
are so popular, especially with investors. Seems
to me that attempts to gather up all the stuff
you think an audience will want to see, and jam
it into your portal is the exact opposite of
what the internet does best...
