Hunting Pigeon Blood
Thursday, July 1st, 2010You’re a Tough Crowd
Sunday, May 23rd, 2010Is anyone besides me getting anything out of this blog? Mostly I’ve done it for my own purposes, but I don’t need it so much anymore, and lately I’ve really been hoping that my readers are getting something out of it as well. I have a number of regular readers and quite a few people wander through, but you’re all so very quiet. The fact that some of you keep coming back should tell me something positive, but a few words now and then would tell me a whole lot more.
So tell me this: If I allowed this blog to languish, would anyone really feel like they were missing out? I’ll take your silence as a clear “No.”
Comment Spammers
Tuesday, March 9th, 2010The comment spammers are getting smarter. Frequently, their garbage is pertinent to the article on which they have posted, and actually makes sense. However, a quick Google will find the exact same comment on other blogs, and their email and web addresses clearly mark them as advertisers. <DELETE>
Counting Cards
Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010On several occasions someone has told me that they had been reading my blog, but they didn’t show up on sitemeter’s statistics. It might be because of browser settings, ad-blocking software, or some other factor, but I am beginning to suspect that sitemeter is only counting about a third of my visitors. I doubt that another traffic analysis tool would do better.
More Wordpress Woes
Monday, March 1st, 2010I upgraded to the latest version of Wordpress Saturday night, and it wiped out all the edits I had made to the template I was using. I did a backup before the upgrade, but it only backed up the sql tables. Grrr.
Visitor 10,000
Monday, February 22nd, 2010Congratulations, Verizon customer from somewhere in the vicinity of Potomac, Maryland, using Firefox on Windows XP and a screen resolution of 1280×1024 who clicked in from voxday.blogspot.com on the night of February 20th! You were my 10,000th visitor. Aren’t you proud?
OK, so 10,000 visitors in who-knows-how-many years isn’t much to brag about in the blogosphere. But, gosh darn it, they’re my visitors!
