i have been looking through my web usage logs, trying to see who has been reading this site, who has been linking to my site, and who has been using my images on their site. what I found is pretty amazing.

in just the records from ONE DAY, I found that:

1. a pic of my niece was used on more than one site (one in italy, one in the UK) to express the emotion “GRRR”.

2. a pic of me was used on a Dutch shoe fetish site to say “Bleh!” to someone’s choice of shoe! (this pic was from my friend Hope Britt’s 18th birthday, for anyone who was there and helped me out of that pond.)

3. a pic of mine from China was used on an israeli site to show a pot big enough to cook a giraffe. Part of an answer to the question - is Giraffe kosher?

4. a blog in kuwait seems to be linking to something on my site, but I can’t tell what - i can’t read arabic (yet.) maybe some Osama paraphernalia pics?

5. a japanese site that seems to be loving the “West-SIDE!” phenomenon using a pic of my buddy Naoki. In fact, that pic is on several sites all over.

6. a pic from a chinese museum was used as the disturbing pic of the day on one message board.

7. another dutch site (do all those fools have computers?) was looking for a pic of the band Offspring and found this.

the word is being spread. And these aren’t even my best pics…
