Hmmm…I don’t go to very many  
Google  
Yahoo  
eBay  
CNN  
That’s it. Of that list, I only visit four. I’m pretty lame.

(of course, there’s less than fifteen sites I really visit on a regular basis.)

It isn’t.

I bet 95% of Canadians don’t even know where Burlington is! (I sure as hell don’t!)

That is **SO** messed up!

[TrafficRanking.com](http://TrafficRanking.com) doesn’t like a very reputable source. Their ranking is done by a company called [linkstoyou.com](http://linkstoyou.com), a company that charges companies to appear high in their rankings. Also, neither company looks like more than a 5 person shop; I’m guessing the Burlington library is one of their top customers.
