Hehe, yes, definitely. The ratio of interesting content:junk would be nice to visualize. In the early days of the web I hardly ever ran into a website that wasn't interesting. /. (why not ./ by the way?) was a nice way to discover new stuff when that ratio first started to decrease. |

h-t-t-p colon slash slash slash dot dot org
