That Explains It
September 8th, 2008
I always know when some aggregation site has linked to one of my posts when I start getting a bunch of comments from people I’ve never heard of before. About 11,000 visitors came from Reddit. And of course, it happens to be one of the briefest posts I’ve written–but on a topic I think is important. I just hope a few people looked at more than just the one brief post.
An associated problem from this: for the next month, my Google Analytics chart will look like this:
The one peak flattens out the rest. Google’s service may be free and have a lot of analytical tools, but they do a bad job on that main-page graph in a few ways.
My recent post about Anonymous vs Scientology did the same to my graph, really wish there was some way to fix this.
Most of the “strangers” to my blog come looking for graphs.
