One of the fun things about having this small firm is reading [and hopefully learning from] the regularly generated reports. The majority of the reports which cross my desk are financial in nature and are prepared by Alicia, a CPA who is the firm’s long time part time accountant. Yesterday, however, I got a different type of report, related to the firm’s web site.

Thus, I am now able to tell you all kinds of useless information, like the fact that it has had 136,087 hits or (better yet) that the most separate hits came from California, not Texas. My favorite “tidbit” of information relates to our foreign visitors to the site. Some of these are easily understood ? because we have client representatives located in Taiwan, Canada and Sweden. Other visits (from 50 different cities world wide) presently are a mystery. For example, the 80 separate visitors from Beijing; the 2 visitors from Switzerland or, finally, the 1 lone visitor (thus far) from Iran ? no city indicated. At any rate, welcome all and ?if you wish to identify yourself as one of our visitors (wherever you reside) please drop us a line and tell us what you think of the site, the blog, whatever.
