- reason is for example blog pages such as xanga are always updated.
- you guys know there are 8 servers to Google? if you've been a keen Google fan you'll know. ;)
google dance is when google spiders deep crawl, otherwise, google updates almost at a daily basis. and its 8 load balancing regional datacenters, not servers. eight servers would no way be able to handle the tremendous amounts of hits google gets, its more around 10,000+ whiteboxes, all running linux. and did you know that they have a zero employee turnover rate? heh, im a google fan myself, as you can see.
