Oh, Hey!

A visitor from Iceland. I'm a made man.

The Map

ClustrMap has changed its updating, so that I no longer have a cumulative map for more than a month at a time. It's interesting, though, to see where my repeat visits are coming from -- mostly the US, South Africa, Australia, Europe, with what seems to be fairly steady traffic from South America and parts of Southern and Southeast Asia.

And a visitor from the Canary Islands.

Who knew?

Hmmm. . . .

Just scoping out The Map. Some surprising things going on there: I'm making good progress in China and Mexico, slowly penetrating Russia, and moving up into Scandinavia, with a few random visits from places in Africa.

Still no hits from Antarctica, though.

The Map

I haven't looked at The Map for a few days -- still no hits from Antarctica, but some interesting developments. My major centers seem to be the San Francisco Bay area (thanks, Piet), Kansas City (?), D.C. and up through the Northeast, Atlanta, the Midwest, London, Sydney/Melbourne, a respectable showing from Germany (you're always welcome here, Firle), but I'm also getting a fair amount of traffic from Beijing, Manila, Hong Kong, what I'm guessing is Kuala Lumpur, Rio, and somewhere in South Africa (Johannesburg? Gads, has my geography gotten rusty!).

Sobering, that.

Must be the promise of naked men.

Really, it fascinates me to realize that I've had visitors from all over the world to a blog I never expected anyone to read -- and that they can find it.

You have to understand, we didn't have a TV until I was five or six. I sometimes wonder if technology hasn't outstripped my ability to comprehend it.
