Who’d have thunk it?

Weird.

Seriously weird.

Apparently, this site ranks in the list of “all time hottest geeky urls” at texting.com. Honest – it’s here – and I’m not sure how it happened, either. I had no idea this was a geeky site. I know that I am a bit of a geek, but I had aspired to producing a non-geeky site.
