All About Haifa
Google recently did a presentation there. (PDF)

some stats...

• Over 10% of URLs change from month to month.

• There are over 100 million unique search queries each day.

interesting things about Haifa not covered in the presentation...

• A Russian guy named Boris has a cool submarine oriented bar there.

• Many cab drivers in Haifa get kickbacks form the diamand industry and brothels.
• The water in the Haifa harbor is green and will eat the grassy sea skirt off a submarine in a couple days at most.
• Haifa lets people pump sanitaries right into the harbor (or at least did a few years ago).
• I was on a Haifa beach when there was a bomb threat and left Haifa less than a week before the violence started again in 2000. I was also at the mall where I am told a bomb exploded just days after I left.
