'Round the World
I use a free program to figure out how many readers I have for this blog (I average about 8 daily readers), and about 25% of that are new visitors. One other feature the program has is it lets me know where the readers' IP originates from. It isn't very specific -- I can't see your actual IP address so don't worry, but it does tell me the country, state and town. What it doesn't do, however, is tell me how often a particular IP hits this blog.
It's fascinating for me. Especially when I see foreign countries on the map. I always wonder if they like the blog, how they found it. Will they read it again (I also wonder that for U.S. readers)? Can they read it (especially in non-English countries)?
Here's a list of non-U.S. countries for the past 30 days:
- Brazil
- Turkey
- Latvia
- Ireland
- Spain
- France
- Germany
- Canada
As for U.S. I haven't gotten readers from all 50 states. Yet. Soon!
And please remember to comment, even if it's to say "God, that was a boring post. You just wasted 30 seconds of my life." I don't mind that. Really. I'm still figuring out what I want this blog to be about.

you are lucky. I haven't gotten any international readers yet...but alot that I don't know of, or who...it is interesting to see how many people are reading and not commenting, though!
I think it helps that I have a foreign-ish title.
