My first Instalanche....
I don't post to my WordPress writing blog often, but when I do, I try to make it significant. Sarah Hoyt read my latest, Don't Pirate Indies, and used her guest-blogger rights to link it. I peaked at somewhere around 137 hits/hr. Roughly 800 hits in a 24 hour period that came from Instapundit, and a fair number from Facebook. Not the System Crushing onslaught of Slashdotting, but still far more traffic than I've ever gotten before. And given the nature of Instapundit, the rate slacked off in direct proportion to time until the hits started coming from page two.
Oddly, File 770, which makes a practice of selectively quoting and misrepresenting various blogs, including mine several times, hasn't picked this one up at all.

Credit where it's due. 10 days later, F770 finally noticed my blog post and linked it. Can't argue with the excerpts either. Although minus a point for trying to call hypocrisy on the name of my blog, even if it's jokingly. I've been using that name on ALL of my blogs, even my LiveJournal, since the turn of the century, more or less. It's my brand.
