If things are a bit slow around here today, this is the reason why.

Update:

That wasn’t too bad. I’m pleased with my hosting company, Dreamhost, for not putting me on a server that melted down when the hits started coming in.

When I first posted it a few months ago it got a few diggs but I guess not enough to push it to the front page. I still don’t understand this blogging thing.

I think Neatorama picking it up probably helped. Despite the ads, there’s a hella audience there.

Eh, I rarely visit Neatorama. Besides there being too many ads, I find that there are just way too many contributors which dilutes what little personality the blog had to start. (I much prefer YesButNoButYes, Mental Floss and Miss C. of some of the other blogs that you contribute.)

I remember reading a science fiction story many years ago about a future society with teleportation booths. Something would happen somewhere, and as soon as the word got out, hundreds of people would teleport there, creating a traffic jam. A lot like the Digg effect.
