The Dots

Many people ask me about the dots. "What the hell is that?" they say. And so I answer them-- "It's stupid."

Here are the available dot pages.

One thousand dots: Takes about 30 min to load on a bad day.
Ten thousand dots: Takes 10x as long as 1000, except that a couple of dots are always lost on the first load, so you have to do another re-load to get them. So maybe 11x as long.
Nobody's ever had the patience to load the One-hundred thousand dots. In fact, it nearly crashed our server the day it was announced.

The dots change color from time to time. Today they are white.
The coolest color ever was transparent.
Imitators beware: each of the dots is a separate file. This takes lots of room.
