View Surge!

500 views on the Members onTap plugin in the last 5 hrs? Really? ... hmmm... a quick scan of google shows the riaforge addresses at the top of the results for "Members onTap" immediately followed by some links to horribly outdated content from as far back as 2004, long before the SQL Abstraction layer was rewritten into CFCs. There don't appear to be any blogs yet linking to the framework projects on riaforge or to this blog... makes the traffic seem strange unless... perhaps Google is spidering the riaforge site. hmmm... Not that I wouldn't love to have that kind of legitimate traffic! :) But I don't think it's very likely that I'd suddenly get 100 views per hour sandwiched between Christmas and New Year's Day when the riaforge projects have only been up for a little over a week.

Edit Dec-28 9:00am: Yep... Number of views for the core framework shot up from slightly over 1k to slightly under 4k between when I posted this yesterday evening and now... That's roughly 3,000 views in 12 hours, roughly 250 views per hour or 4 per minute... As much as I'd like to take credit for that traffic, I really think it's spiders.
