Things seen in Napanee this afternoon. The Square Boy Pizza logo must be one of the last dot matrix brands left. I didn’t catch if the restaurant was inferior or superior.
The January Stats Are In

Just to keep you advised of your activities, January 2004 was a big month. Hits up 55% at 2736 daily or 84830 for the month. Visits averaged 411 daily or 12754 for the month – up 19%. These stats are something of a mugs game with spiders, bots, wacky google mis-searches but the hit to visit ratio is good at 6.65 to one. This means each visit on average consists of 6.65 moves throughout on the site. It was 5.38 in December. Visits were from 4921 different places up about 25%.
RSS, reading through syndicated feeds, accounted for only 12% of hits, pretty much where it has been. Dutch hits at 565 exceed those from the UK at 538. The guy in Belize visited 34 times. Hello Belize guy. Top five searches:
- genx
- belinda stronach
- aa gill
- tijuana bibles
- names for teams
At this rate, by 2007, I will account for 36% of all internet traffic, will be a object of desire for porn fans and will also be a candidate for the presidency of the USA. That’s how it works, right?
My USA

The states of these United States with which my corporeal state has been united
Via Mike, is this interesting if fairly useless web tool to make a map if which states you have visited. Much of my claim is based on the big 1966 trek from Mississauga to San Diego, California. A bit of a guess as to the route we took but I recall the painted desert and the Grand Canyon. Why have I never tasted the delights of Delaware? Best state? Maine.

Have a look at this. Someone is taking my RSS feed and those of others I know and aggregating them on another site and sticking up advertising. How odd. I don’t know if I feel good about this or bad. I certainly have not been asked permission or offered a share of the likely tiny revenue stream from the Google ads. Reminds me of all the bother in the mid-90’s about deep linking, focusing on two news web sites on the Shetlands. Whose stuff is this that I do? I understand it to be mine under the Copyright Act. To the credit of the aggregator, there is no doubt that the attributation to me is there. But does someone else get the chump change for my writing that ought to buy me that Friday Guinness?
