*'''Keep''' Passes [[WP:Notable]] since has a couple secondary sources. People might want to find out about this site, although the article doesn't really give much info more than clicking on the site itself would give you. Still no special reason to delete.[[User:Borock|Borock]] ([[User talk:Borock|talk]]) 01:34, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
