First for those interested my webstats for this site which
may form some indicator to Thanet’s most popular blogs http://michaelsbookshop.com/laptop513/
The site figures for this blog say about 12,500 unique
visitors making about 55,000 visits, I have managed to reduce tins figure by
putting comment moderation on posts over 5 days old and turning off anonymous
comment over night, which has gone a long way to reduce the number of visiting
spammers. There were only 21 commercial spam comments yesterday compared to
about 300 a day before I did this.

Ramsgate, 1805 (pencil and watercolour) by Samuel Atkins.
I am really no nearer to resolving the problem of what I can
only describe as non-commercial spam, but a few thoughts for those responding
to comments on the actions I am now taking.
The top line of commentators are people with real names
linking to the real identity of a known person who is signed on to blogger,
Simon Moores, Chris Wells, Peter Checksfield, Michael Child, Tony Flaig
bignews, Louise Oldfield and so on these names appear in blue at the top of
their comments showing they are signed on to their blogger accounts. If you see
a comment where one of these names appears in black, it is bound to be someone pretending
to be that person. If you reply to a comment where one of these names appear in
black, you need to be aware that I will now spam the comment as soon as I see
it and your reply will vanish with the comment.
I don’t recommend ever doing this i.e. pretending to be a
signed on blogger for a bit of a laugh as bloggers spam controls will soon
block your ip address, preventing you from commenting on blogger.
At you see if looked at the webstats the

I don’t trust anything much about web
statistics but these are supposed to show the number of different ip addresses that
arrive from these sources, so clicking repeatedly on the link to here from any
one blog won’t change the statistics.
Next on to teasing ECR the widget thing on
the sidebar that measures the number of pageviews only goes back to July 2008 and
apart from being able to set it so it shows the views during the last 30 days,
you can set it so it shows the views since July 2008.
ECR has his set this way and I have to say I
was surprised to find that this blog had had more visitors than he had had
since then, so I have set mine in the same way.
It looks like the Dreamland judgement will made tomorrow.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
