Holy cow! As of 9:50 am this morning: I’ve had 838 hits since 12 am and my current hit count is 100,346, according to the rankings page. I almost feel sad that I didn’t get to honk my horn when it hit 100,000 ’cause I wasn’t watching.

This is weird: the rankings on that page must use a method different from the hourly hits on the blog to compile counts. According to my hourly hits, my blog received 1468 hits between 8 and 9 am. Probably because some really popular blogger pointed to me and my campaign for 100,000 hits. Maybe it’s because hits picks up all sorts of things loaded on the blog, like images and such, instead of counting straight page reads. (But my blog isn’t image heavy, so the discrepancy shouldn’t be that large.) There’s nothing out of the ordinary in my referer log. The Clarkbot hasn’t even hit me today. Hhhmmm …

Congratulations! You made it over the hump with a rediculous 2,000 hit hour this morning! Wow! You obviously have some powerful and important friends in the ‘Sphere
