The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
The new Boeing 787 Dreamliner can carry about 250 passengers. This blog was viewed about 1,700 times in 2012. If it were a Dreamliner, it would take about 7 trips to carry that many people.








That’s the audience of about 280 shows at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Wow! I’m even more impressed now.
One of the other blogs I follow suggests actually picturing the number of followers, or visitors, to one’s blog, and working out how comfortable you might feel addressing a group that size in person, up on a stage or behind a podium… puts things in perspective somewhat!
