SOMETHIN' FISHY -- by Steve Nadis

Ever since calling attention to an anomalously high number of "pageviews" on this blog almost two weeks ago ("Something About Tuesday"), pageviews plummeted to anomalously low levels. Today, however, which is still rather young, blog.com claims there have already been more than 200 pageviews on Call Me Snake. Could that be possible? Do I know enough people in the world (six degrees of separation notwithstanding) and, more importantly, do enough people in the world know me or this blog? Or did all those proverbial "monkeys" somehow, accidentally, magically, type in my URL: cambridgeguy.blog.com? It's one of those great mysteries in the world and, short of consulting tech support, one that will likely forever remain unexplained.

2 - Thanks Windfall, very kind, even though this whole charade is based on sham statistics. (Comment this)

3 - It is fishy about the pageviews. The data on my blog showed enough pageviews that my bandwidth was exceeded by mid month. I asked the management if they had sandbagged me. The management didn't answer my question. I went ahead and upgraded. Then, all of a sudden pageviews fell to zero for five days. Their answer to why was "a number of blogs showed zero and we corrected the problem." I bet. (Comment this)

4 - There was a problem; I confirmed that w/tech. support. Sorry you got "sandbagged" but I hope you get some benefits from the upgrade. (Comment this)
