Flipping The Clock II

Is time linear, or cyclical? Does it flow like the sands of an hour glass or like a gurgling stream? Is it subjective or objective? Panoptic or pandemic? Random adjective or similar adjective? All I know is, it's time for another installment of...

Flipping the Clock.

So you all know the drill here. My stat count is nearing its full status for the sixth time, so before I reset it all, I'm going to go through the search results, because it amuses me. And, for extra fun, here's a the location map of all visitors:

In case you're thinking that this doesn't add up to four hundred and fifty some locations, remember there is some repeat traffic and compression going on. Plus, you have to subtract the hundred or so times a day I come to check the site myself. Moving on, here's the search results. Analysis after.

That's a lot of searches. The lion's share, of course, goes to people looking for the humbug bistro blog. May November (and substantial parts of December) always be remembered for that time I leached off the fame of a much more popular site. Once you factor out those queries, the book reviews seem to be the most popular sections, which makes sense. After all, the book titles are search terms that are widely known enough to attract a large audience, yet distinct enough that this blog doesn't get drowned by all the others with similar topics. Italo Calvino's "If On a Winter's Night a Traveler" seems to top the list, so do take a look at it, if you haven't already. I'd do more book reviews, but they take for friggin' ever to write.

That's it for this round. See you in another 500. Or you know, next post.

Later Days.
