Would be interesting to see traffic stats for today in comparison to a "normal" day.

We're a news site, not a blog. Just because we use sources other than ourselves for news posts (usually), that makes us no less of a news site.

Well, maybe it's something in the writing (or in some cases just rewriting) style then.

Just noticed the BBC article is one of the most popular read stories on the bbc right this minute, and is now featured on the BBC News home page.

It has also just made news on my local radio station lol (Real Radio North West).

We have to use other sources if we cannot provide one of our own, just as the BBC do. Hence "according to".

And we use multiple sources where possible, in regards to your "rewriting" point.

Why are there always haters.

Neowin was first with the news, end of. And Neowin reported it to Microsoft. That may not be important to you nay-sayers out there... but for a website such as Neowin that is passionate about what it does, that is ****ing amazing for them to be on the national news. A MASSIVE profile boost.

You wouldn't be complaining if it was your website or whatever. So quit moaning. It's a good thing, as it will boost Neowins' profile.

Sheesh... :no:

PS. Quick note for mods, sorry for venting but some people really have nothing better to do than troll!

Times Online has an article about the Hotmail 'security breach' mentioning Neowin up as well.

Good stuff.
