More Fun with Stats

Map

Addendum: Just in case Andy wasn’t asking a smart-assed Zen sort of question, I thought I’d point out that this is a Google Earth map of the most recent visitors to the MotherBlog. StatCounter supplies the little location markers. It’s not absolutely accurate, because it’s based on IP addresses, which do not necessarily show the geographic location of the user. Sometimes, they refer to where the user’s ISP is located. But, anyway, “Hello, out there!”

Fun with Searching

Stats

I’m endlessly entertained by the things folks search for, and by the searches that bring them here. Sometimes I’m taken by surprise. Who knew so many folks would be Googling up a helping of Cheerios? Or that anyone else has a clue who Jethro Lazenby is? What I find even more amazing is that one of these searches was from someone I went to high school with. She e-mailed me to tell me that she’d been Googling something and found my blog, then realized it was mine.  It’s a small, small world sometimes.

(And, yes, I do discuss how to make Shake-n-Bake tofu!)
