This is not a late April Fool's day joke or gimmick of some kind, and I hope that no one is offended by this posting. It certainly isn't intended that way. Apologies for cross postings. As some of you will know, I have a website with several papers on topics of current interest to information managers, archivists and records managers on which there is a counter to tell how many visits have been made to the page. The Visitor number on the site is rapidly approaching 10,000.
Many sites get more than that on a daily basis.
But it is still a nice passing post for an individual consultant and something that I am pleased with because it means that the page is useful to at least some in our professions. I learned about a year ago when my IPP was hacked and the server was down for several weeks that some universities in the U.S., Canada and China were using the page for student assignments. It was the only good news coming out of that experience. I should also note that there is the possibility that I may have to close the site down in the not too distant future. So this is an added reason to offer this small token of my appreciation to page watchers.
