Top 10 May 2004 Searches

At the end of each month (I’ve decided this is the last month I am posting this), I post a list of the top 10 keyword combinations (searches) that visitors have used in a search engine to get to my site. It’s not a popularity list, because “poker chip tricks” and every possible way to search for that would dominate my top 10. These are the funniest, weirdest, or craziest searches that have resulted in a visit to my site. The searches listed are exactly as someone typed them into a search engine.

Here’s the list for May 2004…enjoy!

Off To Sacramento

Later today I’ll be taking off for Detroit and then flying out to Sacramento, CA. I haven’t done laundry or packed a thing, so I’ve got a few things on my “To Do List” for this morning! For the next week, the site will be a little “dead”, but I do have dial-up access in the hotel so I’ll check things at least once a day.

A few things I need to do on the site when I get back:

  1. Create header images for the BluePrint and GanGreen styles.
  2. Create a new favicon.
  3. Work on a few more WP Plugins.
  4. Clean up some code.
  5. Get a new photo gallery up and running.

Now you have something to look forward to…right?

You Might Be A WordPress Junkie If…

  1. You have more than 5 folders on your web space that begin with “wp-“. (There are only 4 included in the distribution, but I have 7.)
  2. You know that a post-slug is not an insect or a shotgun shell.
  3. You know what the WordPress Wiki is and where to find something in it.
  4. You check the WP CVS at least once a day for updated files.
  5. You know at least two of the developers by their domain name.
  6. You’ve written/modified a plugin or hack for WP
  7. You don’t know any Mullenweg’s, but you know a PhotoMatt.
  8. You know that b2 isn’t just the first two characters of a popular Hip Hop group.
  9. Your site is listed under “Strut your stuff” on the WP.
  10. You’ve talked someone into trying WP.

*Inspired by all of the recent commotion at WordPress.
