The countdown to 100,000 hits

As the hit counter marches towards 100,000 hits, I’m not going to make promises like a prize for the 100,000th visitor. What began as an experiment more than 10 months ago has turned out to be a full time activity occupying a large chunk of my daily time. When I started this blog I never even dreamt of notching up a Bloglines subscriber base of more than 100. I wonder how many of them are really active. Although this blog attracts a steady stream of daily visitors, the comments have not kept up pace with the growth in the hits. This could probably be attributed to my laziness to comment in other blogs.

My initial goal was to make atleast one post per day. I think I have outgrown that target and now try to make as many posts as possible. My Bloglines addiction has grown tremendously and the number of feeds that I’m subscribed to is a shade under 1000. If there is a script which one can run to eliminate feeds that have not been updated for more than 2 months, I would be more than happy to do that as that would help me in pruning my Bloglines list.
