Mining the search logs
It's been quite a while, but I finally got around to reviewing the search logs to see what folks were searching for. Over the years, I've actually found some interesting stuff by doing a Google search for some of these. But I found a couple of, umm, interesting queries this go-round. Here are some highlights:
Okay, it's an information design weblog (with a few political off-topic posts thrown in). Reality TV? Tornado? I don't think so. And while I have blogged some of these (like Florence Nightingale -- an early info designer), the above search queries are clearly doomed to failure. Maybe people think it's a Google search? There, returns 250 pages. That said, these still don't match my favorite search query (from work): I paid my dues now where's my card? Which, alas, does not return any results on our site either. Searching for people is common. Recent searches have been for Mary Yeo, Joyce Yee, and John Rheinfrank. John has quite the impressive pedigree (Scient, Doblin Group, and Fitch). I gotta find out how he wound up in daBurgh!
