I liked that too in a childish way.Like seeing a plane and wondering where it was going and who was on it I would wonder who the other 200 or so were and where they were.
I'll get me coat.

It was a useless doodad that was taking up resources so I took it down.

I dispute the "useless doodad" claim. I can say nothing in the face of "was taking up resources," however. :(

I think I could classify as a useless doodad that takes up resources.
I stand before the god-like floating head in preparation for judgement.

Well, it was fun while it lasted. Thanks,
Matt. I kinda figured it was a resource
issue. :-(

You could cache the result and refresh it only every 5-15 minutes or so...that would hardy be resource intensive at all.
