Toaster, red

March 6th, 2009

As you know, or don’t know, or could, possibly postulate, I’m a bit of a dork, and I love numbers.

To feed this hunger for numbers, stats and all sorts of mumbo-jumbo, I added the code for Google Analytics with the new design and hosting, which, every twenty-four hours, gives me a summary of the weirdest stuff ever. Like the person, someone, could have been you for that matter, who visited the blog from Finland. Crazy!

The latest update featured my first recorded visit from a search engine — Google of course. After a few pages of hunting through the analytics program I discovered that they were searching for none other than the words “toaster, red”. Sadly, they found this page on my site, buried in 14 pages of Google results.

Equally sadly, they left in less than a second. Now they’ll never know of the shiny red toaster I have and the english muffins it’ll darken.

  1. YAY! I showed up on an analytic thingy. :D

  2. Hah! You did. I was quite surprised until I remembered.

    Finland? Who’s in Finland?

    I’ve still got mystery readers in New York and Colorado.

  3. Red toaster, red hat, tin foil hat theory.
    Sounds like there should be a connection there somewhere?
