I've just been looking at my site stats. I've had visitors from the UK and USA, as expected, plus the Netherlands, Belgium, Australia, Switzerland, Austria, Italy, Canada, Romania, Singapore, Germany, Ireland, Belarus, Israel, Spain, Sweden, Denmark, Brazil, New Zealand, Malta, the Seychelles, Japan, Poland and, er, the USA Government. Manchester Met Uni accounts for 4% of all my hits, despite issuing 0 page requests.
It seems that
Car Crash Blogs is currently linking to me. What is a car crash blog? you might say. They explain themselves as:
"What makes a good blog? One that has many interesting things to say; that points you in the direction of fascinating facts; that can tell you where to find the funniest thing on the web ever; that is so socio-politically on the ball that goverments shape their policies by them. Addictive because of their essential content, these are what blogging is all about.
Here you will find none of these. Here is where you will find the antithesis of the truly fascinating blog. A collection of bloggers who choose to publish the minutiae of their daily lives for the world to see. Whether it wants to or not. And frequently, it doesn't.
Yet there is something compelling about reading about nothing, in much the same way as we feel helpless to deny our instincts when driving past a horrific accident. We can't help, we can't offer any advice, but we can slow down, stare, and shake our heads ruefully, turning to our travelling companions to say 'That could have been us, you know'."
This blog is described as "A proud exponent of the what's wrong with me/what I eat/why am I so miserable style. Masterfully constructed for maximum self interest. Almost never stops complaining, quite an achievement." I feel quite proud about this. At least I'm good at something.
It seems all the blogs they mention are run by B3tans, thus I suspect the creator is a B3tan themselves. Mary's blog is described as "should become a handy reference guide to the tangled sex life of most of b3ta." Hey, that's only half the story! I've had as many B3tans as she has, you know.
The biggest search query request hit thingumy was for "slut blog", followed by "slut confessions" and "natacha merritt". Another interesting one was "dildo sold at spencer gifts" and "jackie annual 1979". I guess this site hasn't really been around for long enough to generate some truly interesting search strings. However some people found me by searching for the answers to the King William's College quiz, which reminded me that I never did go to check how I did.
The answers are here, I scored 7.
