A couple weeks ago my wife told me, “You should do that thing Nate does and write about the searches that lead people to your blog.” As of now, I am stuck for something interesting to say and have decided to do it.

It’s for December, but not all of December. Obviously though, many of the search phrases refer to posts that were posted months ago.

Two things, Jim:
1) The \ isn’t for anything… on most keyboards it’s just above the Enter (or Return) key, so it’s a common mis-key.
2) I choose to believe that the “how to stop someone driving on lawn” result came from the very guy who chased after you in his truck, because that would be deliciously funny.

Hey, my previous comment could perhaps be styled as a sort of conceited game. Go someplace that hosts a crowd and perform something zany and distinctive. Then, spend the next week doing Google searches to see if anyone wrote about you on their weblog. The challenge would be twofold… first, to do something interesting enough for someone to write about it, and second, to do something specific enough that it could be effectively Googled.
James
I’d find it hilarious if it were the guy who chased after me, but I can’t say that I really want him to know as much about me as he might after reading my blog.
On the other hand, (should he be reading this) I can’t help but think that a well placed bush would solve a lot of problems.
As for the \, I suppose a person seeking pictures of a drunk person’s brain, might be intoxicated enough to make a typing mistake or two.
On the second comment… It would be a great game, but it’d need someone with a lower threshold of embarrassment than I have. I feel like I’m all too likely to do something like that without trying.
