I hate CNN and their pathetic web video player! The streaming sucks and the entire thing opens in a new bloated window! Why the hell can't they just like to videos on youtube or make a semi-decent video player that doesn't require windows media player 15 and 2 hours to stream the video? At the very least, provide a direct link to the video file so i can watch it in a real video player, like vlc. I will never figure out why people even bother talking about, going to, or linking to the "web site" called CNN.com. Without adblock on and with a web browser maximized at CNN.com, 75% of the screen is flooded with ads and deserted with white space. And who had the bright idea at smashing the text into a tiny little 200 pixel column? If the people at CNN are trying to make the site an ad-invested, pathetic attempt at distributing old, irrelevant, and inaccurate information, they hit it right on. I swear I will ***** kill a kitten and never go to their site again if they don't at least attempt at being a decent site to go to, as right now it is very unprofessional, annoying, and spiteful to its users.

here's a link to the story "100 million websites" playable on VLC
http://dynamic.cnn.com/apps/tp/video/tech/2006/11/01/sieberg.100.million.websites.cnn/video.ws.asx - SineNomen, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0A web*site* as opposed to a web*page* (or blog) is genereally considered to be somethign with a domain name.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1That IE picture is rude, I rather see FF there and btw if there is about 100 million site on the net, the half of them crap or abandoned
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1This article is not actually correct......read why at the link below:
http://digg.com/world_news/CNN_100_million_sites_on_the_web - offput, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Additionally, Netcraft reconfirms that BSD is dying....
- MikeCampo, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2Ugh, definitely not funny.
- anagoge, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1In Soviet Russia, this joke isn't funny anymore.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2HAHA, Slashdot beats Digg. SUCK IT!
- falcoboy7, on 10/12/2007, -13/+3In Soviet Russia, website makes you!
- camster91, on 10/12/2007, -13/+2there no way theres only 100 million think of how many GeoCities sites there are this is very wrong number
- saqib, on 10/12/2007, -15/+3according to netcraft:
geocities.com/*.* is considered one site (Domain) no matter how many people host their webpages on it.
However http://docbook.xml.googlepages.com/ and http://shining.sea.googlepages.com/ are counted as 2 sites by netcraft.
I sure that unique hostnames allowed by googlespages is the real cause of the spike in websites. (just a thought)
