What's a server pyramid thingey?

Oh, when you get that website, it shows a map of the US.

On the map are a lot of little pyramid spots that are the major connection points to "The Internet". Basically, your service provider has a connection to one or more of those points and that is how you get connected to whatever you ask for when you click a link or one of your bookmarks.
