Scenes from a Search Engine
So... I'm looking over my website statistics (I seem to have picked up a lot of new readers, um, hi and welcome!) last night, and I took a look at what people are searching for on my site. Some of it was, erm, interesting. I found myself guessing which entries folks were looking for, and why. Here are some of my thoughts:
selkie: Searched for 7 times. Since I think the search looks at the URL as well... I'd imagine the resulting list is really extensive. And that reminds me, I should get going on the selkie mythology section I've been planning...
till human voices wake us: Searched for 3 times. Someone remembered my domain and not the journal URL, I suppose.
different human voices: 2 searches. I know I've talked about singing before, but I honestly have no idea. None.
foam finger maker: One search. They could only have been looking for this entry. I just don't know why. My kudos to the Bud Light advertising folks aside, I didn't think it was that interesting an entry. What do I know?
kindred: the embrace: One search. Oh god. Word's gotten out that I actually kinda liked that show, hasn't it? I'm so ashamed.
my dad said be an actor my son but be a comical one: One search. The quote is from "Make 'Em Laugh" from Singin' in the Rain, and I could have sworn I've used it as a quote at least once. The search didn't turn up anything though, when I checked it.
hermaphrodite human: One search. Wow, um. I don't know what to say about this one. That's kind of like last month's recurring search on "my boobs". For the record, neither search turns up anything. That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.
The article I wrote for Girlie Style is up! Go, go read! And read the other articles while you're there. It's some pretty good stuff. Then write to Chickclick and tell them how much you adore me and how they should give me huge amounts of money to write! Or not, whichever. :-)
