Really? Site of the day may not have as catchy a name (but it makes more

sense because it showcases Flash, Dreamweaver, Generator, Fireworks as well

as Director/Shockwavve), but it is the most visited page people click on

from macromedia.com's home page.  Traffic is extremely high....have not

compared it to shockwave.com's shocked site of the day, but I would guess

that the are equal in traffic.  The very center of the Home Page links to

examples of customer work in our products.


The folks who pick these use their best judgement to find a range of sites

that examplify great usage of our technologies, and that people will be

interested in.  They have no connection as all with the team that handles

sponsorships and advertising on the site.
