Several things have meant that blogging has been a bit slow the last week or two. However, I notice from the stats that the daily average number of visits so far this month has been the highest since I started.  
Clearly, for maximum traffic I should stop posting altogether 😉 It must be the comment spam ….  
A part of it is certainly Google. I did a search for ‘web scale’ the other day and was interested to find [this entry](https://blog.oclc.org/lorcand/archives/001238.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net) on [top of the results](https://www.google.com/search?q=web+scale&ref=lorcandempsey.net) (remember that results may vary depending on your location, etc, and I doubt it will stay there for future visitors ;-).  
Several longer entries I have done sometimes come around again in the lists of most visited entries. One of these is ‘[Discover, locate … horizontal and vertical integration](https://blog.oclc.org/lorcand/archives/000865.html?ref=lorcandempsey.net)‘. It must resonate with a library audience I thought to myself.  
However, a while ago I noticed from logs that it was being regularly found by Google searches for some combination of [horizontal and vertical integration](https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=horizontal+and+vertical+integration&btnG=Search&ref=lorcandempsey.net). Again it ranks highly.  
This stuff is quite interesting, but I need to keep away from it … Enough other things to do 😉
