Interesting (non)search results.  


I just put in a link to WhoLinksToMe, and Google only shows 7 links for my site, all in my site evidently, but that should increase even in my own site by the time Google finally finds all my archives that I've had pointed wrong for who knows how long.

MSN Search does me the best, finding me 74 times. Interesting. I haven't looked at the site logs to see who's been hitting me the hardest. IBM had a search engine hitting me very hard. The trouble is, the Apache set up here doesn't give the correct date/time of modification (the static pages, let alone the PHP pages), so it's constantly thinking that I've updated, when I haven't. :(

But the search here is very wrong. If you look for www.bytehead.org in Blogroll, you get zero hits. Looking for www.bytehead.org/blog/ got you one hit. My own Blogroll was setup with www.bytehead.org/blog/index.php, so I got rid of the index.php, and now I get two hits on www.bytehead.blog/blog/, but that still doesn't get me a hit with www.bytehead.org. Either blogroll needs to change, or wholinkstome needs to change.

Bloglines doesn't find me, even if I just put in bytehead. Sigh.

Oh well!

Most of the 74 hits from MSN Search are from comments that I've left on other blogs, most notable TechDirt.
