This site doesn’t get much traffic. I’m going to do some things about that this summer, but for now it’s mainly a place for friends and family. There are around a dozen or so regular visitors and on any given day only 1 or 2 stop by. In fact I generate most of the traffic to the site, using resources most of you don’t know about (yet anyway). So a couple of weeks ago I was bewildered when in the course of investigating why my network connection was so slow I discovered it was because my web server was completely swamped with incoming connections. Why was everyone suddenly hitting my site? A little investigation uncovered that fact that this post (the fucking mutants one at the top of the page) had somehow become one of the top search results in google’s search engine for folks using a particular phrase when looking for nekkid pics of Ms. Spears. I’m not going to say what phrase exactly because I don’t want the problem to recur, but when I figured it out man did I ever get a laugh. Imagine the poor horny teenagers showing up at my site clicking all over the place muttering ‘where’s the boobs! Damnit, Google is full of it!’

Anyway the problem seems to have gone away, or at least it hasn’t happened again in several weeks, so fingers crossed, no more porn hounds.
