Increasing Traffic

I just checked Google Analytics which is a nerdy way of saying that I looked to see how many people have visited my blog site recently. It is not surprising that there weren't very many, as I have recently chosen the simplicity of posting via Twitter - 140 characters seems to suit me better than unlimited space to ramble incessantly. But I was pleasantly surprised to find that 13 people have visited my site in the last month. Even though I haven't written anything in it for the past 6 months! I like the thought that thirteen people or maybe even just one stalker checks back often to see if I have anything new to say. I don't, except this:

I'm sitting in the library listening to an older gentlemen explaining to other older people about websites. I think he's trying to sell them some sort of website building service. But he doesn't seem very knowledgeable - more like an Amway salesman - telling them they'll have more money for charitable giving if they can make more money (mmmmm...). He's talking really loud, so I don't think it is eavesdropping. I'm going to walk by and nonchalantly look into the room (I guess I just crossed the line into eavesdropping) ... Okay, he's trying to sell his services to a Chinese couple, that don't speak fluent English. That annoys me.

On another note, it is raining really hard right now and Quad Bash (on campus at Ball State) starts in an hour.

This is just for you people couple of people who have been hoping I would post something for the last 6 months. Google Analytics tells me that you're American ... Stalk me, I'll stalk you.

Hey Neil! Shalom and I stalk you (and the rest of the Revo staff) constantly. But we're more discrete about it. We have your blogs on Google Reader, so we probably don't show up on Google Analytics very often. I hope that's not too creepy!
