A quick moment of self-praise and recognition -
Brett’s Blog recently crossed the 10,000th view mark. I actually have all of you to thank for that. I started this blog back in January, not knowing what I was going to get into, and I’ve discovered an excellent tool for thought, expression, discussion and discovery. I love blogging.
With that said, it’s important to note that I hit this mark much sooner than expected due to the power of the right distribution. My Weekend Reading from last week featured a link referring to Anne Coulter. A news blog called Sphere.com picked it up and linked to it. You can see what happened below.
Obviously, traffic like this is amazing, but will it amount to much. Maybe a little, but spikes like these are not anywhere near as important as the gradual increase of 4-5 new viewers a week over time. Either way, though, I’ll take what I can get.

Brett,
What you don’t know is that about 90% of your hits come from me clicking all over your blog. And that big spike of yours…yeah, that was just a slow day at work for me, so I went to town on your blog.

congrats of breaking the 10k views are you planning on monetizing your site?

Few4th – thanks for the useless views. I guess I should just divide my views by 10 every day to get a good idea of what I’m really getting. But, hey, I’ll take it.
Couv – How bout some spicy pics of you!!
BeefJerky – yeah, I do want to monetize. Having a little trouble getting started, but it’s definitely in the plans.
