A Little Retro/Introspection

Astonishing.

I'm going to be a little self-referential today.  (A lot, actually.)

I've finally taken a look at the variety of statistical information available to me about this blog and I have to say that I'm astonished.

This, for instance, is my 295th post.  Over its history A Ministers Musings has had over 51,400 page views.  And while 458 people who've seen my blog are somewhere in the United States, apparently there are supposedly 40 in the Ukraine and 5 in Kazakhstan.

Really?  There are people in Kazakhstan and Thailand and Taiwan who've swung through this little patch of the blogosphere?

Astonishing.

Here's the actual list that appears in my "overview":

United States
458
Ukraine
40
Russia
18
China
13
Thailand
6
India
5
Kazakhstan
5
Taiwan
5
United Kingdom
4
South Africa
4

If true, isn't that remarkable?  When I was a kid -- over half a century ago, now -- something like this would have been inconceivable.  Now?  Compared to the "audience" for most of the blogs I read these stats are nothing.  But really, 18 hits from Russia?

Pax tecum,

And don't forget Canada. :-) Home of many UUs including this one, single-payer health care, and (um) Rob Ford. (You can't have everything.)
