Fun with (Search) Stats!
Since I've semi-unretired this blog and, I've got 30 minutes or so to kill since heading off to lunch, I thought I'd check out the stats from StatCounter. I hadn't looked at these in quite a while, probably not since I stopped posting here regularly.
Not surprisingly there hasn't been a ton of recent traffic but there were some interesting key-words used to find this place in search engines.
The first of those is a quote from Clerks, I assume I must have used it at some point during my guess the quote of the day phase. The second thing makes me feel for the poor sap who's actively looking for work at Convergys. Apparently someone was looking for a hybrid of myself and Webrunner with the quilted runner serach. The Lee Merriweather thing doesn't surprise me as that's turned up a number of times in the keyword search results. I have no idea what the 'tommorows beginning' thing is about but I just checked and it is the top search result on the MSN search engine (same with 'lee merriweather catwomen' and 'convergy job opening').
Also, though it didn't turn up in the keyword, came from says that someone found this place by searching for 'The Quilted Manor' over on dogpile.
Apparently MSN isn't as good as other search engines at recognizing when a page is dormant. When last I checked most of my search hits came from Google and Yahoo. MSN got 5 of the 8 recent ones this time around though. That wacky Microsoft.
