    Although we chose our top sites based on their content, we felt compelled to do a little testing. We gauged the popularity and loading speeds of our Top 100 Sites You Didn't Know You Couldn't Live Without (which, for the sake of brevity, we'll call the Undiscovered 100 sites) and our Top 100 Classic sites, and we recorded the operating systems and server software they're using as well



    =======================

    It is a real PITA :p to go through them if you are on dialup. It is not a straight list of 100, you have to go through many pages and. No, I didn't see MG listed, :p either. Bazza

    PS: But we know better, don't we. :cool: Baz

    Doesn’t this kind of stuff belong in the Interesting Website Links?

    If you note, the article was written in April 20th, 2004.

    Which in the internet world, is ancient news. :)

    Here is page one of the article:

    http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1555405,00.asp

    Number 2 is blackviper (which is dead). Which makes this "highly updated" site, um dead. :)

    Click the next button for the actual list ;) Cor, they need to re-asses the functionality of their website: if 2 out of 5 people can't work out how to navigate an article thats a really bad thing.

    But hum, might be worth a little read, there might be somthing I missed first time around there :)

    Sorry guys, I didn't notice the date.:eek: :eek: When I checked it out yesterday it listed 6-8 websites, per page.:p
    Today when I checked the link below, it only listed one at a time. :p :p
    Either way it is a real PITA.
    As for Interesting links forum, does anyone actually visit that forum regularly?
    I don't, maybe I should. Bazza

    No wonder I couldn't find my original post.:confused: Now it's in Interesting links.:D
    I guess the Moderators moved it to the "Interesting links" forum.:D
    Question still stands. How many visit this forum daily? Bazza

    If the radar is moving, I check every forum. Except for four: Spyware, Virus, "Buy-sell-trade", and "MG DC-Teams"
