The event has been created to "thank all users who stood with us through November 2004 Tech crisis," said webmaster Jen.

Site owner Mark Prince also has commercial motivations. "The Girlathong is going yearly now," he said. It's not just to thank loyal regular customers of site, but to illustrate for webmasters how incredible retention is on LiveCamNetwork."

According to Prince, webmasters are still collecting regular checks from surfers referred to site 3 years ago.

"The site not only has what I know are best chat hostesses on net," Jen said. "But has developed, thanks to these regular users, a great cozy community feeling."

Last November, LiveCamNetwork and all 2much.net sites were hit by a concerted logic-bomb attack which logged-off all performers on network, preventing anyone from making money for ten days.

"During that time we set up a completely free chat room for anyone to come in and play, and to keep up a little patter," said Jen. "Which turned out to be an outpouring of support."

And what is a website? Without groping for definitions, a website is simply a virtual office in cyberspace—a graphical interface where your customers (visitors or guests) can meet “you” without “you” being physically present.

Websites have been known to serve thousands if not millions of people. Like Yahoo. Like MSN. The world has shrunk (thanks to Internet) into a small digital community. And in this community we have about four hundred million people (last count 2003) and still growing. And what do you think will be figure for this year, or say, ten ears from now? Well, your guess is as good as mine.

Now cyberspace is a goldmine. Because every race and creed can be found here. Replete with all our human foibles. And also an opportunity fort capitalist to make money. (Who isn’t?)
