    Seems like a nice website...

    http://www.webwiki.com/jw.org

    ...it's got some good reviews ;)

    Interesting that JW.ORG appears to be hosted by Amazon Web Services and based in Amsterdam.

    I wonder if they use cloud based solutions. I imagine their monthly bandwidth bill isn't cheap when you have a website where a tons of people visit and download stuff n let's not forget their video and streaming site.

    It is using Amazon's Cloud Services:

    Amazon.com, Inc.

    Amazon Web Services, Elastic Compute Cloud, EC2

    1200 12th Avenue South

    Seattle

    98144

    USA

    via:

    Akamai International, BV

    They have a premium streaming service too. If you stream a video and stop it part way through, you can continue playing it at any time, even days later. It maintains the connection.

    That doesn't happen on YouTube for example. After some number of minutes they drop your connection and you have to refresh the page to remake the connection to continue streaming.

    So what you are saying Robert, is that every visit by an apostate to jw.borg is costing them certain “valuable things”?
