Who was the third hit?
I Facebook these blogs.
But I wrote one the other day of which I was leery. There are “friends”on my Facebook not in my Ne’er-do-well list.
My “Ne’er-do-well” list is people to whom I e-mail blog-links. Those not in my my Ne’er-do-well list get my blogs from a Facebook link.
I usually get one or two Facebook hits.
BlogSpot tells me how many hits I get — but not who. Facebooking a blog-link takes 15-20 seconds. E-mail links take 2-3 minutes.
What I do is put out the FB link the same time I publish the blog.
I e-mail Ne’er-do-well links the next day. This also tells me if anyone hit the FB link overnight. My Ne’er-do-well links increase the number of hits. FB might get 0-2 hits; e-mail gets 8-20 additional — sometimes more.
Every time someone clicks a blog-link, a “hit” is recorded.
I was leery of putting a blog on my Facebook. I was afraid some FB “friend” might read it, and take it wrong. (The written word does that — even the spoken word.)
THREE hits the next day.
I put the blog-link on two individual “friend’s” Facebooks. That’s two hits. So who was the third hit?
It can’t be someone I’m Facebook “friends” with, since I didn’t Facebook the blog.
And I hadn’t e-mailed the link yet.
Someone must be following me on BlogSpot. Or perhaps Facebook notified my “friends” I posted to a “friend’s” Facebook.
I have no idea how Facebook works, especially since it likes to change unannounced.
I could recite chapter-and-verse. Like “thank you Mark!”
So who was the third hit? Will I get surprised? Is it someone I wanted to avoid?
I have a few actual friends savvy enough to follow me outside Facebook.
Then too that third hit may be someone wanting to sell me something. All I hafta do is supply my credit-card number, etc.
It’s happened.
• RE: “Hit......” —Every time my blog is accessed on BlogSpot a “hit” is recorded. (That doesn’t mean my blog was read.)
• RE: Misreads....... —People get what they want from written word, spoken word too. Often anger results, or “I never said that.”
• “Mark” is Mark Zuckerberg, founder and head-honcho of Facebook.
