>>Last year VeriSign talked about Project Titan it was $100 million dollar project to diversify infrastructure. Can you describe that for us and what you're hoping to achieve?
>>Sure. It's a project I'm very excited about. We actually launched the project in early 2007 and it was designed to be a three year project that would basically increase the capacity of domain name system that we operate for dot com and dot net by ten X over what it was in 2007. And the idea here was that we've always measured the Internet as the numbers of Websites or the number of emails that get sent or the number of instant messages that get sent and those were all sort of protocols and platforms that were developed for the Internet by the Internet. And the Internet is changing. The amount of scale that we have to be prepared for are hundred year old monolithic infrastructures like teletheny phonetic spelling which will migrate to the Internet in a big way and bring with it hundreds of millions of users suddenly. So we have to be prepared for that growth in transactions. Today we do about 50 billion transactions a day on that system and we anticipate the, you know, going into 2011, 2012 we could be looking at as much as a trillion queries per day on that infrastructure between things like RFID and instant messages that get sent from mobile platforms. So we're pretty excited about this project, it's well underway, we're certainly on schedule, we're very excited about it, we're meeting our objectives on that and we'll certainly be prepared by 2010 for the scalability growth that we'll expect to see.
