After ten months of blogging, I've finally figured out how to bring folks to this site: write about purple lightsabers. Since first noting my approval of the color of Mace Windu's weapon nearly two weeks ago, traffic to this site has exploded. May is already far and away this site's busiest traffic month ever, and it's on pace to more than double the previous best ever showing, set just last month.

This upsurge can be traced directly to my purple lightsaber post. I've had more hits on that phrase than anything else, surpassing such past favorites as "John Basedow" and "Wil Wheaton's wife," and far outstripping my own name.

I'm not saying it's going to be all purple lightsabers all the time around here from now on, but don't be surprised if the phrase pops up randomly time to time.

... purple lightsaber, purple lightsaber, purple lightsaber, purple lightsaber, purple lightsaber, purple lightsaber... okay, that should do for now.
