Followed it back to HotMail's site and got this...
 
             WebCourier

It would appear that buzzword bingo got WebCouriered/Indexed by Hotmail.
(This is purely based upon the WebCourier and Hotmail Logos being in the
frame that framed your splash page for BWB.  I'm not sure I'd be too
impressed by having A Microsoft company 'wrap up' my hard work.  I'd assume
it (the url) was or is being sent to Hotmail clients as the latest and
greatest?  Not sure, but have a look at the URL then at the Hotmail site
for more info.  You might want to e-mail them.

(Then again I might just have a thing against companies that put their
wrapper around someone else's work)

to sparkle, when the throne room becomes a dungeon and all that is left is 
a father's love for his child.
