Freaky Frugalite

I was looking at my traffic stats yesterday. Look at how it is broken down by country.

Isn’t that amazing?! I mean– Kenya? Iceland?! Serbia? Kuwait?! What is “BA” by the way?

And are these spambots, or are these real people? And– MAN– I really need to brush up on my formal English for this blog. I tend to use a lot of idioms and other idiosyncracies of the English language. I wonder if it is all just gibberish to other folks?

I am awed by the fact that so many people know English. I mean, back in America’s founding years, only the Americans and the British used English– everyone in the world used French to communicate with each other. It’s interesting to see how things have shifted. I marvel at how well people from other countries speak English as their second-language. English is not easily mastered (just as the average public-schooled student), so I am impressed.

So how about you and your blog? Do you get a lot of visitors from far-reaching countries? How does it affect your own writing?
