In other news, October was another interesting month in the land of search and the means people use to find this blog. The top five few keyword highlights from the last 31 days:

  1. naked pumpkin: I’m going to be charitable and assume folks were looking for the Annual Naked Pumpkin Run and not “naked pumpkins”. I’m not even sure what “naked pumpkin” means, but it doesn’t sound legal. Whatever they are, just be sure they’re consenting and have reached the legal age of majority in your state.
  2. electronic devices for passionate travellers: I’m assuming they were looking for this list and not something entirely unseemly.
  3. best meal ever: This is the first month that we started ranking on Google for this term. Evidently Google was convinced by my feverishly passionate write-up of Au Pied de Cochon. Seriously, I’m not kidding: visitors to Montreal should be required by law to visit PdC before they leave the city.
  4. nordic porn: A carryover from the past few months. Is there a big market out there specifically for Nordic porn? Perhaps I’m not hanging with the right crowd because I’ve never once heard anyone I know mention it. This is the closest I’ve come personally.
  5. steal internet: Now that’s just not right. I would never recommend doing anything illegal. Especially something as grandiose as stealing the entire internet. Kudos for thinking big though!
