Darkness at noon
This was one of the many blogs that one of Blogger's "bots" tagged as "spam" yesterday; although I responded last night around 9 p.m. last night -- within a couple of hours to the notification email -- this blog was unlocked only in the last hour or so. By way of explaining our absence, is all...
Now there seems to be a systematic problem reading blogs with the Sitemeter code via Explorer 7, so I've removed that code from my template until that problem goes away. I'm here, but I won't know that you're here.
Sigh.
MORE: Because I want to know who is out there, I have added the free "Extreme Tracker," which I have been meaning to do for some time. I'll put the Sitemeter code back when and if it fixes its IE7 problem unless prudence suggests otherwise. Sitemeter is going to lose a lot of market share with this glitch, I think.
Note, by the way, that July 2008 was a record month for this blog, with more than 122,000 individual visits calculated the Sitemeter way. Sadly, I can't show you the page!

Thanks for the info. I experienced the Sitemeter problem on my blog, too.

I use both IE7 and Firefox. The IE7/Sitemeter problem explains why Sitemeter itself wouldn't load earlier on IE7, and why I have a piddly number of visits recorded for today, I suppose (when viewed on Firefox)...

Sitemeter's gone from my blog, never to return. I just don't need the aggravation.

I have both sitemeter and extreme tracker.
One facet of extreme tracker you will like is it keeps a record of EVERY nation that you get a hit from.
It's kinda cool that my little blog has gotten hits from about 130different countries. ;-)
