Procrastinating
I’m supposed to have what’s essentially stage 2 of a program finished for tomorrow morning. But my brain’s stuck in neutral, so I’ll try typing mindlessly until it gets going again.
Although this week hasn’t been a great week timewise to do so, I’m going to try to be on FICS next week; those of you who were interested in getting some games in, my handle is LiquidEggProduct (makes sense)
Thanks to Derek for rekindling my interest in blog stats. It’s interesting to see the variance in the types of regulars and semi-regulars. Person A visits practically everyday. Person B visits twice a month, and tries to catch up on a bunch of posts all at once. Trackbacks get target blogger’s attention.
Two days in the past week, this site has had a record number of unique visitors. Thanks in part to the guy from India who did a Google search for “C# interview questions” (who says stereotypes aren’t based in fact?) And the Lithuanian who wanted the secret code for Super Chick Sisters. And the South African who did an image search for “uckg”.
The most visited post of all time is the first Manuel Uribe post, by a very heavy margin. It’s received more hits than the second, third, and fourth most popular posts combined.


uh-kay. officially freaked out. you know there are some days i’m there like several times? Donnie Big Brother.

Yes, you visit a lot (and for purposes of determining unique visitors, you still count for only once per day). But it’s not like your name shows up, or I can get your address or credit card or anything.
Think about this: if little ol’ me can see this kind of information, imagine what sort of tracking and analyses companies who need to make money do.

LOL. I wonder what percentage of people caught that.
