  After rediscovering that my server had site statistics (I knew it did, I just didn't it would track a subdivision of an account, like my blog is) I was impressed on average I get 20 unique vistors a day. The last few days it's gotten as high as thirty, a very impressive figure. I knew that the readership of my blog has increased lately, even without the site statistics.
It's a nice feeling, but it also comes with responsibility: in the past, I could make comments being relatively sure that those I was writing about wouldn't read them, or just as worse, that the friends of the people I was talking about wouldn't read them. Not that I say anything negitive about anyone on here, since I really get along with everyone. More of concern is letting certain people know things that would best be kept a secret, at least for the moment.
Nevertheless, I wouldn't for a second discourage any readship of the site, after all it's a public web page, and anything I write I should assume will be read by everyone I know. Also, if you are a Fairfield/Easton resident, take a look at the letters section of the Fairfield Minnuteman...I sent a letter in that got published. If you aren't a Fairfield/Easton resident, I'll have a scan of the letter shortly (or more likely, an text copy of my letter, to save on bandwidth).
