| Dog Threads man. It was the heart of the debate. Seems like dogs are pretty hot topics at the spit. |

I suspect it was spam bots, hackers or spiders - on the 28th I had 10x the traffic on a forum I run.
Of course you can never under estimate the dog factor. |

yeah probably bots or a search engine... the old record was like 50 simultaneous people sometime April 2006.
There was a huge boost in traffic for the doggie days though. I guess that's the secret to popularity, lots of anarchy and drama. KiteForum.... sheesh.
But I'll take quality over quanity anyday. 
Some real stats:
around 1600 visits per day
600-900 unique visitors daily
20-30% more popular on weekdays
In Oregon traffic is split at 45% Portland, 36% Hood River. The rest is for smaller towns in the Gorge and Coast.
Lots of traffic worldwide though!  |

Phil, you have probably already thought of this - but you could put up banner ads or links or whatever - capitalize on this traffic.

| I know Phil had a poll awhile back about putting ads on the site. I think most people thought he deserved to make a buck on it. |
