Do You Know?
Wikipedia say: Topsites are sites with a ranked listing of different websites, generally related by an overall subject. In many cases a topsite is a directory of related web sites which ranks the listed sites by popularity. Topsite rankings are user generated, usually through voting by visitors (clicks in to the topsite) from member sites or by counting pageviews. Most topsites have an anti-cheat protection system and some display traffic statistics, user ratings, and reviews. Topsites often list a top 50 or top 100 most popular sites with a similar topic. They can be a significant source of free targeted traffic for member sites if that topsite becomes popular. After several early search engines failed, some people thought topsites might replace them.
Randomize humor
A blonde was standing in front of a pop machine.
Her boyfriend looks over and hears here sceaming at the machine...
"You''re a dumb-looking button!"
"You don''t have much of a future, either!"
"You''re going to be replaced by a much better looking button!"
"I''ve got better looking buttons than you in my dresser drawer!"
Thinking she flipped her lid, her boyfriend walks over to see what the fuss is about.
"What in the heck are you doing?" her boyfriend asks.
The blonde quickly points to the sign on the front of the machine that read...
"DEPRESS BUTTON FOR ICE".
