So, I was going through the traffic on my blog today, and I noticed that I had some visits yesterday from someone in La Plata, Argentina who used Firefox in Windows yesterday to Google your name and subsequently come to my website and spend a half hour reading.  

This person uses "prima s.a." for their internet service provider, and has a cable connection.

I also find it interesting that someone in Toronto who uses Internet Explorer Googled "Diana Nezic" yesterday to find my site, although nowhere on my site is her name typed in full.   My site on comes up on a Google search of her name because .. of your name, I think.


I thought that was fun to share with you.

Fun indeed. I have an international fanbase.

("Diana Nezic" has many letters in common with my name :).

(Btw, neither those locations nor the browser/system specs are necessarily true -- it could have been someone in China or anywhere else using a proxy located in La Plata, and using a bogus browser identifier string.)

Yeah, my tech guys from work explained that to me before.   But I still like to pretend that it is true, giving me an impression of my anonymous readers, even if it is a fake one.

In any event, I can't help but enjoy seeing new readers who actually spend time on my blog, and visit a handful of pages.   Thank you for generating traffic.

Yea, I know what you mean. Visitors who spend some time reading are a special (and rare) thing.
