Yesterday this blog welcomed its 100,000th visitor!

According to Extreme Tracking, that is. I started with Extreme Tracking on april 10, 2005. But the actual kick off of my blog was on february 9, 2005.

I managed to track down the 100,000th visitor as being Paco Vela, a bartender from Las Vegas. Please  say hi to Paco.

The main goal of this blog always has been to keep track of my thoughts and to generate inspirational comments. I have never tried to generate traffic since I value quality above quantity. And about that I have not to complain! I've got lots and lots inspirational commands over the years and I want to thank you, my dear reader, for that.

I know I haven't made this blog an easy read. I could have written it funnier and clearer, but I choose not to. I used it as a way to think out loud and to catch the most volatile of thoughts before they escaped into the oblivion I use to call my brain. The fact that this blog still has readers is a compliment for you, my dear reader. You must be of an exceptional resilient breed!

  3. Great! I never win any "lucky prizes" even though I live here in Las Vegas, and probably because I don't believe in luck, but if someone had to be number 100 thousand, I'm certainly very happy that it was me!
    Like I said before, your blog is very instructive and always interesting, so I want to say Congratulations once more.
    Keep up the great work Temposchlucker.

  5. Congrats. I'm closing in on 100,000 page views, but that's a far cry from 100,000 unique visitors. Truly impressive reach on your part!
