Search Terms for all days ending 2009-05-27 (Summarized) for this blog

In my previous post, TWWP Puzzler for May 27, 2009: which company once marketed operating sy? I listed the search strings that led people to view posts on this blog yesterday.

WordPress also keeps a running total of all the search terms used to date. You can find my list below, and I suggest it would be both fun and informative for other WordPress bloggers to publish their lists.

TWWP Puzzler for May 27, 2009: which company once marketed operating sy?

From time to time, say about every five minutes, I take a look at my WordPress “stats” page to see how I’m doing.

This morning I was astounded to learn that my note A Brief History of Operating Systems had drawn 236 views yesterday, and so far today it has drawn over 40. I am writing this early in the WordPress Day, so I expect many more views will also come today.

This blog drew almost five hundred views yesterday. The totals for the previous days were 184, 143, 144 and 317. I expect most of the 317 views, the day before yesterday, were also of this post.

Thing is, I don’t know what prompted people to come across this blog. I have no new incoming links. All I do have is the list of search strings that people used to reach my blog. The strings are truncated, as can be seen by the list of the ssearch trings people used yesterday:

By the way, I find the list of strings quite informative, as it’s one way of finding out which posts worked, and which didn’t. I’m also pleased by the variety of the strings, an indication of the broad range of the blog. For example, “A. J. Liebling,” “Dr Watson and Sherlock Holmes,” “SSgt. Chay,” and “Leigh Ann Tuohy.” I am especially pleased by the large number of strings containing “ubuntu,” a sign of the growing interest in Ubuntu and also confirmation that I was wise to write so many posts about it.

Today’s Puzzler is to find the reason that so many people wanted to know “which company once marketed operating sy.”

Then again, did they want to know which company once marked a man named Sy?

I don’t know.

Do you?
