What I fear has materialised…
You should know that for the past few - read three - days, I expressed my concerns to my friend. Yes, it has something to do with Standing My Ground. 
Before that, you may not know this: before October 2007, my blog was hosted at Blogger.com. In fact, at the time, this was the only blog hosting site I know of! After all, most of my friends’ blogs were something-something.blogspot.com. You should know that despites its popularity, Blogger lack a few built-in features. Needless to say I conducted a search and evaluated the available blog hosting sites online. I wanted a free, easy-to-use blog with more features than mere templates. And finally, I found WordPress.com (take note that there is also a WordPress.org).
You may be surprised, but I can’t recall the name of my blog before Standing My Ground. What I can tell you is this: I was listening to Stand My Ground by Within Temptations at the time. I was also going through a lot of stuff back then. In fact I wrote about it.
While WordPress.com may have some shortcomings, over all, I give it an eight out of 10. You really should get your hands on the features. One, notably, being the Stats page. This page enables me to keep track of the number of visitors, search engine terms which led to Standing My Ground, referrals by other websites or blogs, the posts which has the highest amount of traffic and the websites on my blog which visitors clicked on. This feature comes in a 1 day, 1 week, 1 month and whole life compilations.
I better not forget the emoticons. 
and :-p (beat that, blogger! lol)
Here’s the thing: On the 25/3/2008, my blog received 27 hits. This is relatively normal for me. In fact, double digits below 40 was the reasonable target. The next day, much to both my pleasure and fear, the number of visitors rose to 82 hits. This figure rose to 110 visitors on the 27/3/2008. Like the stock market, it fell again to 82 before dipping to 29 (as of writing). Oikh… But in total,I broke the 2000 visitors mark earlier today.
What I confide in my friend was this: I’m more worried about sustaining a stable flow of visitors above all else. The influx is just out of the roof! I dread to see the graph after a few days… While I did mention that a bad habit among bloggers is looking at the statistics, I should stop the habit. lol.
Once again, thank you for visiting my blog. Your feedback would be appreciated. 
Oh, please, no Pak and Mak Anon…
History have always fascinated me. The way it repeat itself over and over again under one’s nose. 
I have always believed that when blogging, pictures play a key role in attracting and retaining readers/visitors. The quest for searching such pictures finally bore fruit after I stumbled upon this DVD at Plaza Masalam.
