100,000!

Wow! It's been less than three months since my move to Seed ScienceBlogs and my Sitemeter already hit 100,000.

The round-number visitor came from Oslo, Norway, a Firefox user, from Stumbleupon to see Did A Virus Make You Smart?, made three pageviews and remained 4 minutes and 13 seconds total on the last two pages.

In comparison, it took almost 16 months for Science And Politics to reach 100,000 and it has still not hit 200,000 after more than two years (the traffic there has dropped considerably but it still gets about 180 per day, mostly through Google searches).

So, I am self-congratulating myself today. Thank you all for coming and I hope to see you again tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after...

This is one hundredth post since I moved to scienceblogs.com! Wow - that was fast! And only nine of those are re-published old posts from old blogs. OK, tomorrow at noon will be the second septidieversary (two weeks, OK?) of this blog. Time to take stock again. I got 183 comments in two weeks…
Yes, I owned this album when it first came out in 1978. A recent post by Prof Matt Nisbet raised some Saturday night reflections for me as to how one measures one's impact as a blogger if one is so inclined to do so. But does this apparent impact or "influence" actually mean anything? I've got…
. . .and I thank you for your support. I'm not a huge blog traffic addict and, in fact, I mostly keep a SiteMeter counter below because I get to see the geographical distribution of our readers. They have a great map feature where you can look at the locations of the last 100 or 500 hits and I…

Well done Bora. You have earned folks attention, just keep grinding out content that serves them well...

BTW, just hit my 1,000th unique after my switchover last month to CitizenWill.org.

Congratulations! I almost thought it was me who was number 100 000. How many Firefox using Oslo-ians can it be, but then I saw the post was posted yesterday, and I only started using this well written blog today. Well.. have to settle with being number 100 000-something.
