2013 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2013 annual report for this website.
Here’s an excerpt:
The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 49,000 times in 2013. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 18 sold-out performances for that many people to see it.
Happy New Year
Happy New Year to everyone….
