A lot, on here, is NOT news.

[GretchenEE]

Hey, I tried to warn them. There's a genuine Surgeon General approved warning label on the front page. FReeping can be addictive. Heh, heh.

Yes, that warning is essential and well-placed! God bless you, Jim, and your family too.

[Timesink]

I'm sure this should be added to some bump lists, but I can't decide which ones.

Does anybody else see a link here with the story on Drudge today that ABC is offering Peter Jennings (I will omit further comment thereon) $2.5 million per year less in contract renewal talks? Such sweetness. The net is fulfilling its potential. Yeeeeehaaaaaaaaa.

8 hours 56 minutes monthly average?...Shoot, I do that in one day...:)

[Hawkeye's Girl]

That's gotta be a per week stat, right?

[68-69TonkinGulfYachtClub]

Well Done Jim!
Just goes to show that the all news sites like Fox etc. don't offer enough content to keep web surfers interested.
Your overall plan to expand different forums proves, without a doubt, that surfers want more than just news and research.

Ok, I found where it is linked. On the following NYT Business/Media index page click on: Interactive Graphic: Most Wanted: Text Messaging, then: Web Sites/"Stickiest"

[piasa]

They're on the graphic for the least sticky web sites on the web, below even teflon.com and greasedpig.org and the webcam site for janetrenointheshower.com

[Jeff Chandler]

Better watch out. Bingo.com is gaining on you.

[Navy Patriot]

Peter Jennings--$2.5 million per year less in contract renewal talks?

I'll be happy when "Prevaricator Pete" has to pay the networks to get on, and they run a "paid advertisement" on the screen with him.

[DoughtyOne]

Looks like leaving my DSL line signed on to FR 24 hours at a time, is finally starting to pay Jim.

[SAJ]

Mr. Robinson -- It's hardly surprising that principled people prefer discussing things with other principled people, and, disagreements about particular issues among FReePers aside, the threads are usually worth any honest person's efforts.

This is an excellent site, in more ways than I can name just now.

Many thanks!

PING! See graphic at begining of thread.

[backhoe]

I'm impressed, pleased, and gratified. It's nice to see those figures.
