Yeah, most press I've gotten doesnt usually bring all that much change in
traffic, except for the couple times on NPR because....drum roll,

Not even the SF Chronicle links to my site when they write about me, which
is weird since they consider themselves techy.

Congrats to all!  I love Mossburgs collumns and being noted by him is a very
good thing in my book.
