I wonder what Radio Free Blogistan makes of me. Here I am on top of the Salon rankings by page-reads for the last couple of days, and they can’t make heads or tails of the entire blog.
Should I clue them in on why I suddenly shot to the top of the ratings? Would they actually care?
I saw the reverse cowgirl’s blog (deservedly) shooting past me when she got a mention on Radio Blogistan, and I still see pornographer’s picks (undeservedly) sitting up there at #4–I don’t know about the other Salon bloggers, but I’m getting totally anal about checking Salon’s rankings page as I see myself slowly but surely creeping up from 17th position to 12th position.
Oh well, any day now the Veronique De Cock story is going to blow over and I’ll be back at my regular 150 or so hits per day. And I’ll be able to go back to having fun with the referers. Finding stuff like “Mike’s apartment password” (that’s been a while!) or eyesore (“tipoog” in Flemish, check it out on Google), or “Martine Tanghe”. Ah, those were the days… my first mention on Google… the day my weblog overtook my job description at Netpoint… Mmmm.
Look at me, barely a month and a half on Salon and an old fart already. Tch.
