Breaking News: AC to the Max Goes International!


So I've always been a pretty globally-minded kind of guy, but my blog only recently decided to hit the international stage.  In the past couple weeks I have experienced a worldwide boom in blog readership.  Thanks to Google Analytics, I'm able to track the countries, states, and even cities where people are reading this blog. Here's a list of the countries where people have visited my blog, in order from most blog hits to least:
  1. United States (duh)
  2. Canada
  3. United Kingdom
  4. Australia
  5. Italy
  6. Poland
  7. Germany
  8. Mauritius (island off the eastern coast of Madagascar...I had to look it up, too)
  9. Chile
  10. Sudan
  11. Brazil
  12. Costa Rica
  13. Argentina
  14. Mexico
  15. France
  16. Macedonia
  17. Slovenia
A few random thoughts as I have analyzed the data.  For obvious reasons, my top four countries are English-speaking nations. My blog has been read on every continent except Asia (not counting Antarctica, of course), which interestingly enough is where I have spent more of my world travels than any other place. I suppose I'll have to make an appeal for readership from my friends in China, India, and Bhutan. Western Europe is apparently in love with me, although I've never been there nor posted about that part of the world. I've had readership in one African nation (Sudan)...well...two if you include Mauritius, but I think that is more of an island nation without any continent affiliation.  My readership covers probably 85% of the Americas (I made that statistic up, but that doesn't mean it's not true!), thanks to readers in the big countries like the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Brazil, and Argentina.

The bottom line...my blog readership is going global! So join in the fun! If you are reading this blog from somewhere outside the U.S., leave me a comment! (Ok, U.S. readers...I won't be ethnodiscriminatory...you can comment, too!)

Well, when I saw this title on Bloglines, I had different thoughts as to the content. But, well... anyway... uh. congratulations on your globalness. You can now add the Philippines to your blog since I'm sitting in Quezon City right now.

See you soon,

Hmm...good point. Sorry to disappoint you, but that breaking news won't be coming for a while, although it is more or less a done deal. Thanks for the international shout out.
