Normally, I receive somewhere between 900-2500 hits per day (green on above graph) with slightly more than like twice as many page views (purple on above graph), but last week, one of my articles from nearly a year ago about global warming was Dugg, producing nearly 50,000 hits in the span of a single day! This graph shows you what those stats look like when compared to my normal traffic -- which I thought was respectable (well, sorta). Now, if only I could keep my traffic at such enormous levels, I'd be so happy!

Congrats. When my blog got boingboinged it produced only around 2000 views, so this could be a hint to the BoingBoing and Digg differences. :)

I'm curious which of your nature images had the most hits. I'd venture "humping tortoises" will do well, but that might just be me.... ;-)

It was a beautiful picture and it recieved many comments from digg viewers. I wonder how many will get "hooked" as well and find the wonderful info. from then till now and venture back beyond. After your post last spring I had made it my background for a couple weeks and stared off into the horizon and used it as a visual stimulas for personal grounding. I hope you keep a grand following as this blog enriches my life in many ways. :o)
Congrats on this month's 15 megabytes of fame. ;-) Niven's story "Flash Mob" kind of sums up the issues with Internet "publicity".
