I learned something today. Something very useful. Because I work at a large company, we have very strict internet blockers. I can't check web-based email, access web-based storage, nor view photo or video sharing sites. Somebody on digg mentioned that some administrators only block the domain name and not the IP address, either because they're lazy or leave them open for their friends. For example, YouTube is blocked, but 208.65.153.253 is not. Next up, GMail.
