"If a tree falls in the forest, and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound?"
Well, for the past year, I was always wondering whether my blog was "making any sound". My postings were always done on an act of faith - that someone, somewhere "out there" was reading them. I did get occasional feedback from fellow riders, friends and family on my postings, but other than this (which was very encouraging in and of itself) I had no real idea of the level of interest/readership my efforts were generating.
Well, today I found out through some poking around in "blogspot" that they provide a high level perspective of the number of pages which have been accessed on the blog, and the country of origin of the reader.
I am quite amazed at the results - beyond my wildest expectations...
Here they are...
Over 7,000 views - Thanks to all for your interest, support and encouragement, and have a Merry Christmas (or whatever seasonal holiday you observe) and a Happy New Year.
Ski season starts this Saturday - the weather in New Jersey has been in the mid 20°s all week so they have made tons of snow.
Cheers,
Bill
It's incredible, Bill Ruddick is also known in Switzerland as the historical national hero William Tell. Probably because the blog offered the scoop not found elsewhere!
ReplyDeleteI miss you Bill, I miss the whole gang and Canada too.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year full of crazy projects .... and reasonable success.
Serge.

I know it will hurt Bill but I did you by about 1000 hits. Always good to keep the ex colonies in their place!!
