When you're the size of AOL, .1 bits of information per button press

Even when you're the size of us (almost _exactly_ 1000 times smaller in
all numbers), it's still quite useful information.

And your average user probably has 1000 times as much clue, so it
balances out.

It's not a matter of balancing, it's a matter of "we're still big
enough" for the information to be useful.

I wouldn't count on "more clue".  The typical AOL user is on AOL because
they _want_ to be.  Whereas many of ours are only on here because they
_have_ to be, and aren't necessarily any more savvy.
