November was great!

Now that December is upon us, I am reviewing the site statistics for Clarkblog for the month of November, and it's hard to believe what I am seeing...

D= Number of Hits on the Site for the Month
E= Amount of Bandwidth used for the Month

Both Louis and myself are stunned at the numbers we have been seeing all month long. In addition, Clarkblog's good friend Orbusmax.com has given this site tremendous exposure just this week, and we are absolutely grateful for that recognition. The numbers have been up and down this year from month to month, but October and November have been simply amazing...

I've said it before...there was a time when we debated whether there could ever be enough going on in 'lil 'ol Clark County to ever warrant an entire blog devoted to just that. In a little over a year, Clarkblog boasts 11232 Posts, in 2872 Topics, by 128 Members, and still growing. Yes, 90% of what is said here is me doing the talking, but a lot of you read this site regularly, and I appreciate the support.

In particular, I need to recognize the columbian's news room for their contributions to the success of this site. For the month of November, the columbian was the Number Four most frequent viewer of clarkblog.org, and viewed 534 pages, generated 2,868 hits on the site, and used 10.02 MB of bandwidth doing it. It's interesting that they monitor this site so closely, generating almost 100 hits per day here, and that so much of the coverage they print follows this site so closely, and about 2 days behind...

I needed to share this impressive news, and I hope the momentum continues. There is a lot going on in the County, and nobody is doing what I am here in Clark County on the internet. This past year has not just been fun, it's been a riot...

Stoout Hearts...

<Claps for the newsroom of said newspaper..>

Its only going on because there are people here who are not finding an outlet for there views or ideas and want to share links, idea and thoughts.
I'd like to thank tefen for his wonderful insights and GIS mapping.

Well I better get back to scouring the internet and my email box and packing.. Hope all who read this has a "Wonderful and Enjoyable Happy Holidays.."

Different people get many different things from this site, and contribute in many different ways. I neglected to say how much I appreciate every single post here at Clarkblog as much as i do the many regular readers. My friend WB is right. This is a unique outlet in a lot of ways to a lot of people, not just the columbian...

You have my sympathies with packing WB. My wife and I agree that if the day ever arrives where we have to move again, it would mean we would sell or donate most of our furniture, purge as much of the rest as we could,, and move into a newly tricked out retirement villa and move not much more than a suitcase and a few boxes of record albums that we both would rather be buried with than sell...

I have a good handcart you are welcome to borrow....

I have a data bit collection of 1970's and 80's computer collection I've had since I was 11 years old that has a lot of fond memories.. But because of growing up and the cost of fuel to haul it up and down I-5 over my life time, feel like its time to part it out, sell off or take it to the nearest way station.

A lot of good memories but time moves along and can't take all of this stuff with me to the grave.

And chief, my bins would be bigger than your cart bin.

Thank you to all who read Clarkblog and contribute to its uniqueness including our regular cast of merriment directors, Karma, Tefen, sensibilist (where did he run off to?) and the other people I probably will forget to mention.

All of us have to remember now that the Pacific NW and governments are now watching us. So I am now going to post and wave to them all and wish all of you a fine and fun Holiday Cheer!
