Very Weird....

I love to find how random people find my blog. They've google things like "blue granny," "dadnesia," even "siblent." And they've come from at least 8 countries. My little feedjit map (on the left of the blog) shows where people come from. And just now I learned it does something else... it ranks blogs in cities across the country and makes a daily list of the most popular for each city.

Someone came to my blog today from http://www.feedjit.com/ and so I went there to see... Our blog is listed as the #3 most read blog in greenville for the day. Wooo... almost scarey! Jed made the list, too! He's #7.

Feedjit claims they don't just rank by number of hits, but they also take into account content and interest. If a blog has a lot of interesting things, they'll get a higher rank than someone else with more traffic. Craziness!!! I knew Nathan was loveable and interesting. But #3 in all of greater Greenville today?!?! Thats an honor - a scary honor! Thanks for helping make him so popular! And to think this blog started out just as a way to stay in touch with grandparents... :)

Julie's on it today! :)
Okay, help me here, my blog is not "googleable"!! I have it checked on my profile to allow it but it still isn't. It USED to be so I'm not sure how to fix it. Any ideas???
