I was recently quite pleased to achieve the superhuman feat of getting 0.03 seconds on a stopwatch. This was very difficult, and took many attempts. I wasn’t wasting time – there was a long SQL script running and I was “timing” it. I took a photo and posted it in this blog.

This week I was contacted by Mark at greenbeetle, who had accepted my challenge and beaten it. Congratulations Mark. No-one can ever beat 0.01 seconds, unless they cheat. Like you did.

Seriously though, this made me realise that there are people out there who actually read my blog for normal reasons (i.e. not the ones searching for photos of ladies wearing stockings). So I went in and checked the referrer logs and what did I find:

• Blogs of people I know – Kirsten, Spong, TristanK, Michael, Mel and Jem
  
• A Chinese .text blog – Some Chinese-speaking friends have translated this as praising my site design and advising people to use me as an example of css. *blush*
  
• Scott Milling – has me on his blogroll. I don’t know who he is, or why.
  
• Whirlpool Bigpond FAQ – YAY! I have Contributed to something.
  
• A whole lot of referrer spammers.
