On The Internet, Everyone's Got Lots Of Readers

People always ask me how many folks read this blog, and I always tell them "One or two" -- which isn't all that far off. It's quality, not quantity.

Others are taking a different tack, however. The NSBA's Board Buzz recently claimed that it had 100,000 unique visitors per month. Wow. The PEN Newsblast says it's "informing 250,000 readers." Impressive. And EdNews says it's got almost 2 million readers. Amazing.

But there's no common or independent ranking system, so they can pretty much say what they want. In which case, I'd like it known that I'm 6'2", 215 lbs, with abs of steel.

6'2" and 215? you're considered overweight, according to the BMI index, with a body mass index of 27.9. :-)

Then again, I shouldn't talk. I'm 4'5" and 220 pounds.
