Post 900/4th anniversary

The 4th anniversary of the blog was actually in early February. I thought it was in late February so I missed it. I decided to wait until this post, my 900th,  to celebrate. This will be a retrospective post. I'm linking to the Top 10 posts in terms of what Goggle claims were page hits.

I seem to be averaging about 20-30 hits per post these days. Since I read somewhere that the average blog has one reader (no doubt the author), I'm doing way above average. It was interesting to see that a lot of my early 2008 posts have no hits, even to this day. Maybe I should post a listing of those.


This walk down memory lane was fun for me, which after all, is the main reason I do this blog - because it's fun. I hope, if there are posts here you haven't seen, that you'll enjoy looking at them as much as I enjoyed pulling them together.

Regarding the zero reader posts, if it were lazy me I'd repost those suckers. Like they used to say on NBC, "if you haven't seen it, it's new to you."

Happy 4 years!

I get depressed when I list my all-time most viewed posts because it's obvious the bots went crazy clicking on it because the post had a certain word in the title.

(The word "post" in a title, for example, guarantees loads of hits).
