The Return of the Krakhaus

While flame.ind continues to bob around 3rd or 4th place in the WELL's conference traffic rankings, another conference has crept back up out of the woodwork: krakhaus.ind. Originally started a few months after 9/11/2001, it's another timesink conference, a place to post meaningless drivel like the equally useless weird conference.

Not surprisingly, many of the denizens of flame.ind hang out in krakhaus.ind.

Now, krakhaus has hit the top 20 conferences in traffic, due to the many nonsensical postings done simply to generate more traffic and climb the hits charts.

It's interesting to note that the independent conference on food, chow.ind has passed the current events conference in terms of traffic, and is now at #9.
