Well, I was looking around the net today and saw an ad claming that yahoo was toast. I was re-directed to http://home.myway.com. I liked their site, and like they claim their site was pretty quick loading. So I went to see like how my pings were when I did a tracert and I found it to be very odd.... It looks like myWay is iWon or something....

Tracert to home.myway.com

Then again maybe I'm just on crack and have absolutely no clue as to what I'm talking about.


EDIT: Me so we ta did... this should've been in the lounge.
