He got Dug over the weekend which caused his traffic to spike at 38,000 hits. My little Stumbly invasion was a modest 500. Digg is currently the 500lb gorilla of social bookmarking sites and getting Dugg is the equivalent of slipping the one true ring onto your blog and having the great Eye of Sauron swivel on to your little spot on a file server somewhere, causing it to be instantaneously immolated in an inferno of TCP IP connections. (I wish I could claim credit for that particular image, but it was the talented Tycho over at Penny Arcade) [...] [...] EDIT: JFB over at 365 Questions (who has posted kind things about me), has an interesting post on getting Dug by Digg.

I'd definitely be a good prospect. Except that no one knows I store my bank passwords in a My Yahoo page... Oh, wait... Good idea. I’d definitely be a good prospect.

It makes me strongly believe that there is a need for a totally secure and reliable (and probably not free) service to keep personal info you want access from anywhere, organize your contacts... all the data you need at hand but do not want to store in an unsecure server....

I guess 'The Gurrier' is that place in all of us we fear may bubble to the surface one day and run screaming through the streets, gnawing on our neighbour's prize azaleas and hurling hot excrement through their windows. In another, more accurate way, it's just little old me. It gives me great pleasure to know that people enjoy my occasional tirades and humble fictions. Amongst the bedazzling and bewildering array the web has to offer, thank you for taking the time to read them and being kind enough to point others along the way. Cheers JFB.
