Now Serving 2,141

According to the tracking report for this site, I’ve had 2,140 visitors to this site (since June 2007). This isn’t just hits, this is two thousand different people (unique IP addresses) coming here at least once. Sure, some of these visitors may be Internet spiders/crawlers, and some may be family and friends visiting from two or more computers (office, home), but at 2,140 logged visitors, I think I can safely call it an even 2,000.

This tracking report shows me when these visitors have come, how often they come, and how they got here (directly or through a link). Since I haven’t done any real advertising for this site, the number of visitors is surprising to me.

The only “hard” content I have beyond my simple fluff daily blog posts is information in my Table Games section, with reviews and data about the Dungeons & Dragons game. I have grand plans for regular content, but finding the time to get it all done is proving very difficult.

I’m glad to see that someone finds this blog interesting enough to visit more than once, and to apparently pass word to friends about it. Thanks for that.

Now, if I could request something of you: please send me an email. I’m really curious about who is visiting, from where, and how they learned about me. If nothing more, just click the email link and send a mail saying, “Hi.” You don’t have to type up any real message.

I’ve had feedback from a few people, on various things here, but the number is very small compared to the 2,000 total visitors.

I won’t use your email address for spam, or anything like that. I don’t have the ability to use your email for anything even if I had the intent. Hell, look at this site — it’s not particularly high-tech. There’s no database storing the blog posts; these posts and pages are typed in a basic HTML editor.

I tried, way back at the beginning to install a real blog program (WordPress), but it was too difficult and aggravating to try and get to work. Since then, I’ve considered trying again, but going through all that would take time that I’m already poor of. How much could I write in the time it would take to install blogging software?

Anyway. I’m enjoying writing this daily blog, and I’m excited that a couple thousand people have read some of it.

Y’all come back now, y’hear.
