Alice Springs !?!
July 20, 2007 · 1 Comment
Special hello to the red dot in Alice Springs – if THAT isn’t ‘the middleof nowhere’, I don’t know what IS !?! (no offence – of course!)
I’d love it, if you spoke up and told the world of readers who you are…

Two big drawcards, apparently!

The gang (49 hits per day) and The remainder of the weekend (about 40 hits per day) are the OTHER two posts which have been mysteriously garnering a lot of attention since last week…Anyone want to offer any thoughts as to WHY?
Personally, I LOVE “I’m rechargin’”…but, that doesn’t explain HOW and WHY so many people are finding it – as distinct from finding this site’s main page, or most recent post/s…
Astounding!

I am having a thoroughly ODD experience with this blog: I was away from home for a 3-day weekend, didn’t have access to a computer at all. I came home too tired to even look at my email – so I didn’t – and I only logged on, after a break of 4 or 5 days.
By then, of course I assumed that everything would look so stale here, that no-one would be visiting at all…but I was too tired to care about it.
When I logged on, imagine how surprised I was to find that my stats were (relatively-speaking) “through-the-roof”!
Bearing in mind that this is a new blog with only a tiny audience, usually – where I appreciate each one of you – my usual number of views or hits per day is around 5 to 7. Yes: that means only 5 to 7 people… My busiest day ever was 39, which has happened only a couple of times – usually when I specifically ASKED (real-life) friends to look at something I had put up.
And here I find, that while I was away and NOT posting, I have had hits of almost 300 per day!

WHY?!?
I’d LOVE one of you to TELL me!
Especially since no-one is leaving any comments, which I find rather bizarre…
The search terms or keywords which most people are using or responding to are anything to do with funny cat pictures: ‘funny cats’, ‘cute cats’, ‘funny pictures’, ‘lolcats’, etc – so I assume that the concept of funny cat pictures must have been getting some big publicity somewhere, and I am getting traffic as a spin-off…
Even stranger, the post which has been, by far, the most viewed, is this one - which is brief and insubstantial – even though it IS a delightful image/caption.
SO…I don’t know WHAT to make of all that activity, and I arther assume that you will all vaporise fairly soon, just as quickly and quietly as you arrived…but it’s nice to have ‘known’ you (!) and I hope you enjoy what you find here.

This lolcat refers to yesterday, which was my birthday…more on THAT subject LATER.

Hi. I noticed the other day – with excitement – that we have a new dot on each of these continents. I find this so remarkable – even though I know its how the internet works.
Just like aviation – you know, when you are taking off, and you just think ‘how can this BE?’- all these people and all this luggage, and it just goes up into the sky and around the globe!? REMARKABLE – unbelievable, quite literally – at least, to ME!… I will never cease to marvel at HOW this can and does happen – both the plane and the internet.
So, I wonder who and where these two people are, and how they found me, and I would love it if they would speak up, and say … I know its unlikely, but I CAN at least ASK…
Only 6 votes on the poll, and they are divided between cat pics and text posts, so I remain undecided so far. I will leave the poll up a bit longer, hoping for some more responses.
So here is something to put a smile on your faces:
