Where Did All Those Readers Come From?

The Typepad stat counter shows that my blog has gotten 911 page views in the past 24 hours.

My daily average is 518 page views, so where did all those readers come from?

Usually when I get a spike like this, it's because someone else has written a story about me with a link to my blog, or I have a story in another publication, like the recent piece I did for Crosscut. The day that story appeared, I had 601 page views, so just a small spike.

The last time I had more than 900 page views in one day was December 11. Back then, I was writing about surviving the holidays and recycling unneeded drugs through drug repositories.

I checked my stats and referrers, but there's no one referrer sending all these folks to my blog today.

It's a mystery.
