For those of you who didn’t know, I have a new job as a web designer for a company whose presence on the web is integral to the business. To help give you an idea of the traffic volume of oursite, check out how “we” compare to some of the big boys like ESPN.com and progressive.com.

Over the last year, our volume grew 57%, epsn’s grew 31%, and progressive’s shrank 9%! We are definately doing something right. Pretty cool…

Something the “real” news outlets aren’t talking about…

Thursday night, the tiny European country of Liechtenstein was invaded by the one neighbor they never thought they had to fear… Switzerland. I kid you not, a company of armed Swiss soldiers “invaded” Liechtenstein!

Sure, it was an accident. They got lost in the dark. They weren’t carrying ammo. No one in Liechtenstein even noticed! The details take most of the fun out of this story.

On a sidenote, it is interesting to note how “free” some countries borders apparently are. Can you imagine the firestorm the media would have if a regimen of Mexican soldiers carrying weapons made it a mile or two into Texas?
