    Figured some of you might find this interesting. It may open your eyes to how much hosting the servers that power sites like this actually costs. Keep in mind this article only covers 1 aspect of data center operation (power costs) but does not mention staff, bandwidth, rent, equipment (and the cost to maintain/replace for ~100% availability).
