Doing a Little Research About Something that Intrigued Me, I Learned That ~ in 2011 ~ a Victoria’s Secret Webcast

…handled 2 MILLION+ visitors FOR THE HOUR LONG program.

They all had to sign in, too, using “WEBCAST” as a password, so there was some programming involved.

How about that.

Sebelius and Co. have had HOW long and HOW much of our money to get a website that works?

   Victoria’s Secret can do a better job than the federal government. Pretty much says it all. I’ kind of pissed that only 800,000 of the money-sucks were furloughed. Out of 2.65 million employees that’s only about 1/3 of them. I’d be happier with about 90% of them at home watching Oprah. (As long as they don’t don’t get paid, and there is no retroactive payment to them.)

   That’s 800K so far, David. Some agencies are hoping that Congress will resolve the matter and move on this week. So they are issuing furlough letters slowly.

   As Victoria’s Secrets … … … I’ve yet to see any software by or for the government to work well. Period.

   If a system works smoothly, it’s because either they bought the package from a vendor, INCLUDING support, or because the software has been around so long that the bugs were written out through simple repetition.

   Most of the 2 million were probably Government employees, too, if one goes by their surfing records…
