I’ve been perusing my server logs, and they are, perhaps disturbingly, a bit hard to bear. You might find this concept a bit unusual, but I’ll explain. Most people arrive at this website from fireburst.co.uk or bookmarks, but a few come here from assorted search engines. With some cunning shenanigans, it’s possible to find out what they were searching for that led them to this site. Looking at peoples names, and stripping out all the instances of me playing with google, then only one person has been looking for me, and they managed to spell my name wrong. The bit that gets to me (in a don’t-take-all-this-too-seriously manner) is that Andrew Caisley, Andrew Tierney, Dave Parry and Nick Gore have all been the subject of more searches leading to my website than I have. Bastards.

Mr T has found (Oi! Andy! Permalinks please!) a cool post about climbing around a toilet cubicle – and now I’m thinking about doing the same thing in my office. Not the most subtle of things to contemplate, since I think my four coworkers that I share with, and my supervisor next door, might well notice. Reaching the ceiling would be cool, and about my level of competency – there’s plenty of shelving, and that’s almost my preferred hand- and foot- hold size. Anyway, there’s a slightly subtle take-home message in the story, and I think I managed to catch it.

Well, I warned one of them earlier on this evening, so I have to follow through and take the piss out of two of my mates for their weblogs (neither of whom have been previously mentioned). After checking in person, it transpires that Adam Langley (yes Polly, the Adam Langley) really did shout out "First Post" at 4.30am during a fire alarm. As he has said, unless you read Slashdot you might not appreciate what that means, but if you do, you’ll join me in a general sense of derision.

As for Mike Moate’s First Post, he will really need to get both a permanent url and some permalink action for eternal mockery, but I’ve a feeling he’s got more important things to be getting on with at the moment. Good luck Mike.
