Stardate 20010830.1501 (On Screen): Dan points out that web loggers are getting scanned quite often by Google and as a result are rising in Google's arcane "relevance" calculation when linked to certain words. That got me curious, so I did a Google search for "clueless". And
there I was, hit #9. I wonder if this partly explains why I'm getting so many refers from Google; since last Saturday morning I've gotten well over two hundred. On the other hand, who'd google for "clueless"? (Besides me?)
(discuss)Update: Iain did the same thing and found his blog also high on Google's lists. He points out that those of us using Greymatter may have an advantage here, and I think he's right. In both his case and in mine, there are more than 600 pages which Google will have found all of which reference our main pages, those being the individual pages created by Greymatter for individual log entries. Because of how Google evaluates "popularity", that would give our pages high relevance. (I think. But I'm not sure.)
