Just tell your wife that having a tank teaches you all sorts of new DIY skills...which will save lots of money around the house...so you can buy more stuff for your tank...so you can learn more skills...

It was actually 519 about 1 week ago but for some reason the stat keeps resetting. Now we just need to get them all posting pictures of their tanks!

Right this very moment, there are 15 members online out of a total of 226 "people" online. Of the 211 "guests," 125 are spiders.
You can count them for yourself, I just did.

Looks like 12 are Google, 1 MSN, 1 Ask and the remainder Yahoo!. I guess that is why we have over 80,000 pages indexed in Yahoo!.

I believe a spider is an AI program that scours the web, looking for web pages. It indexes them, and uses the links on those pages to get to other pages. Every once in a while, it'll go "home" to report its findings.

It's also why I end up getting my own advice back when I google something! Originally Posted by Reefland Looks like 12 are Google, 1 MSN, 1 Ask and the remainder Yahoo!. I guess that is why we have over 80,000 pages indexed in Yahoo!.

CSeaSee is correct. A spider or bot is a computer that browses the internet and stores webpages so when you go to a search engine and do a search, it has results for you. It is a complex business and each search engine is different on how they determine what results to return. The first step for a website is to get the spiders on the site to index it and we do a very good job at that.

Some google examples:
Starphire glass tank The first three pages of links are all about me!
(OK, I cheated. I googled "Starphire glass tank Ninong." But if you go ahead and google just plain old "Starphire glass tank," I'm on the first page as the #7 listing out of 3,330 listings.
Obviously I'm not going to add my board name to any searches that I do looking for advice but even when I don't, I end up getting my own advice back on lots of subjects. If I'm wondering which boards I posted about a certain topic, all I have to do is search a couple of key words with Ninong tacked onto the end and I will get all of my posts on Reefland, Reef Central and Reefs.org. I use the same board name on 9 different boards but I'm only active on two and semi-active on a third.

No, Reefs.org is my semi-active board. I usually go over there just to read their online magazine. Sometimes I hang around long enough to stir up stuff: http://www.reefs.org/phpBB2/viewtopi...er=asc&start=0 Originally Posted by CSeaSee Is this your semi-active board?
