After having shown some recent keyword activity, and the countries of recent visitors, I thought it might be of interest to go ahead and show who actually visited. Note that this sort of information is available from the Site Meter at the bottom of the page, but this particular block of information came from my StatCounter, which provides a wealth of information (but is not displayed).
It is always of interest for me to see who is dropping by and what they are reading. Occasionally, it influences what I write. For instance, if I see a lot of hits on one of my biodiesel essays because of some recent news story, I may go ahead and write a new biodiesel story.
I believe this represents the most recent 500 visitors, but I didn’t actually count them. Some interesting names represented, and others I have never heard of. The number on the left is the number of visits from that particular ISP, but not necessarily from the same IP address. For instance, the most-represented ISP, Road Runner in New York, has 18 visits, but there are 10 different IP addresses represented by that ISP.
Please note, if you see your ISP/company/affiliation and object to having this information displayed, shoot me a brief e-mail and I will remove your entry. It is not my intent to embarrass anyone or get anyone in trouble. Also note that some ISPs come through sort of garbled; I deleted some that had several “Unknowns” in the ISP, city, or country category. So if you visited and don’t see your ISP listed, that may be why.
Incidentally, I see a couple of Saudi Aramco visits. How about you guys e-mail me and tell me what’s really going on in Saudi? Please. 🙂
First thing, I will summarize some of the visitors so you can get a flavor without going through the entire list. Here is a sampling of the categories, and some representatives from those categories.
