Searching for Aaron December 29, 2005
Posted by Aaron in : General , trackbackSo trying to find a open source project that I was involved with years ago I decided to fire up ye olden google and see if searching for my name yielded any results. Much to my surprise google reported it’d found 308 hits based on that search. Since there wasn’t that much before I decided to figure out how many of these hits were not me. Around 15 of those hits are not me, 65% of the remaining are because of OpenIT (change logs accounted for about 90% of those). Another 20% is because of the years I spent running cross country and track (it seems every school posts the entire results from almost every meet on their site). 10% seems to be related to my early web forays into coding and such on several code snippets sites, almost all of which I relied heavily upon at one point but haven’t even thought about it in the 3 or 4 years since. The remaining 5% are mostly just various hits caused by this site. Speaking of which, it just occured to me that I haven’t posted about site traffic and patterns in a while. More importantly I haven’t posted any stories from christmas or made any other announcements. Guess I should check and make sure that the peoples involved don’t want to make their own announcement, you know who you are (I figure leaving it open ended like that might make more people than I intend feel obligated to say something, since I haven’t been doing a very good job of talking on my own). Anyway, I really need to get this site to show the right time when I post because obviously I wouldn’t be digging around in such innane statistics at a time rapidly approaching 1am. Or perhaps that’d be the only time I’d do it, like others in my family I find sleep to be overrated. From what I’ve observed, morning’s arrival seems independent of how much I sleep that night. Doesn’t give much motivation for either course of action and as such Newton’s first law kicks in and sleep gets postponed.
