any surprises in your stats lately?

while looking up some stats for craig, i stumbled across this:

DAAANG.

and that is only from 01 january 08, 12:00 AM to 02 april 08, 10:57 am. only three full months! at the end of the year, we would have waited almost 31 billion hours for websites to download!

the internet is great. but snap, we may be a little too obsessed.

what do you think?

maybe i am exaggerating a bit, but given a little wider tornado, or a little faster wind, the tornado that hit edmond, oklahoma last night could have been much worse, and many more of my friends could have been in danger.

chris and i live in downtown. we went to bed around 12:30 after it appeared the tornado-producing storms were weakening. an hour later, the sirens went off downtown. i jumped out of bed and turned on the tele.

the only rotation was in edmond, which is where my office is and two of the lifechurch.tv oklahoma city campuses reside. as well as most of my okc friends. like terry. and sunny. and john. and john. and aaron.

i heard on the news that power just went out to the west side of edmond where the storm was. my friends began twittering about the power loss from their phones.

since we were totally in the clear, chris and i stayed up and kept our friends informed of the weather.

tornado on the ground.

over broadway.

even though they were hiding in closets and basements, they could know exactly where the tornado was because of twitter.

and they could know when the coast was clear.

i know twitter is all about friends and fun and updates and random 140 character bits of life, but in situations like this, i wonder how powerful it will be…

what if twitter was around during 9-11? during bigger storms? hurricanes? earthquakes? blackouts?

i think twitter can save lives - and i think it will. (remember, read the tweets from the bottom up in order for them to make sense!)

tomorrow, terry, zach (our digerati ninja) and i will road trip down to austin and meet up with bobby for the south by southwest interactive festival.

(yes, i wish i could stay for music and film. i really, really do)…

anyway, we are having an open, meet up type breakfast sunday morning at 8 am (yaaaawwwnnn!!) at las manitas in downtown austin. if you are going to be at sxsw or you just want to hang out with a bunch of techies, feel free to join us.

if you are planning on dropping by, can you email me here?

otherwise…i’ll try and get a little video going…these little road trips can be fun…

question to keep you busy over the weekend: what is your favorite blog (other than mine, of course…ha! just kidding!) and why?

ok, not really. i didn’t. but my blog did. yeah. huge huge huge makeover. i am still working a few bugs out (mainly for you IE users) so don’t fret if something looks weird.

but please tell me if you see something that looks like it shouldn’t…

if you would be so kind…
1) tell me if stuff works for you (click on pages, comments, leave a comment…)
2) tell me what kind of computer you’re using (mac or pc)
3) tell me what browser you’re using (firefox is highly recommended…but IE, safari, opera…whatever)

i hope you dig it! :) it was fun for me to design!

PS - things could look really freaky when you first visit, so make sure you hit “refresh” on your browser to load all the new stuff properly!

known bugs:
firefox/ie contact form & speaking request forms/sidebar issue (still functional)

i got this error message today while trying to go to somebody’s profile. flashbacks of myspace flooded my mind.

Do you prefer Facebook or Myspace or….?
