A Summary of This Blog

It occurred to me that people actually read this. Sincerely, thank you. I don't expect people to read anything I write, nor do I think I'm entertaining as a writer, but I guess since I have readers, that may not be the case.

What's funny is, Blogger allows you to get a glace at who reads your stuff. I get how many people have "read it", which in actuality is just clicked on this link, either by accident or for unexplained reasons, on purpose. I get to see what operating system and browser you are running, your country, and where the traffic is coming from. I thought this was super interesting! So here's what I've noticed (it's a slow day at work, so bare with me):

Countries:

Since this blog started I've picked up readers in:

US
Russia (I have never been nor have friends in Russia, and it comes in second!)
UK
Germany
South Africa
Singapore (Don't know anyone there!)
France
Australia
Brazil (go figure)
Spain

I have people in every country I've been in reading this stuff... and some that I have no idea how they got a hold of this. I think that's super cool....

Browsers:




Chrome wins! And good for everyone out there running Chrome...the benevolent gods of Google approve!

Firebox and IE come in second and third, respectively, which isn't a surprise. But what's funny is there's 2 people... yes 2 whole people, that are still running Netscape. They might be the last two people in the world doing so... what is this 1999??? If you are reading this on Netscape, can you please identify yourselves, just for my entertainment purposes, please??? There's also 1 person running something called "Konqueror", that sounds not the LEAST bit ominous.

Operating Systems:


Obviously, most people run Windows, and the second is Macs. What surprised me is.. more people are reading this with Linux than with the iPhone+iPad??? Linux?? Do I have that may hipster and/or tech geek friends that run Linux??? Should I stock up on PBR and/or Mountain Dew in my fridge for you guys? Also, who the hell  runs i686 Linux and who the hell was dumb enough to buy a hp-tablet?...oh wait nevermind... i remember

I currently have 1,154 pageviews currently... THAT'S FRIGGIN AMAZING! Thank you all for indulging me with my antics and giving me a soap box to talk about capoeira, food, and whatever the hell is on my mind. Keep reading, let me know if I can make improvements or if you'd like to see something. And if your the people running Netscape...or i686 Linux, or your browser name is the "Konqueror", let me know, I wish to make fun of you just a little bit.

  1. Just a note... I find commenting on Blogger using my iPhone to be challenging... it freezes, won't let me edit text, and can't enter the "show me you're a real person" text test.

    So, it's back to Netscape... oh, oops! No, not me- it's Firefox on a Mac.

    Beijos, tchau.
