I found a link tucked away at the bottom of the BBC's main news page with the words;
"Most Popular Now Traffic to this site is currently 7% above normal"
Clicking it opens a great piece of technology. Just watch the page for a few minutes and you'll see the most popular news stories start to swap places on the top10 board. Not only that but you can see which part of the world is accessing the site, and what the traffic load is.
Plus you can click the map and see the most popular stories and traffic load for continents around the world .
