    Something doesnt seem right here...

    The interview says he gets between 5000 and 15000 and visitors a day. (Such a wide span of visitors per day is rather unusual, you'd expect more steady traffic...anyways)...On the side of the site, it has a "rankz" button that says he gets "Visitors/Day 336.83"

    Now its great if he is doing well; but it seems like a fake PR if you ask me.

    The first website that I made (that ever made me a dime, that is) was constructed from a public computer while I was without a home. It can be done..but I don't think I'd have make a website about my plight...I have something against beggers. Go figure.
