Top Ranking: Having fun with techno errata

Often with web sites, especially ones using more advanced applications, there are glitches, hiccups, breakdowns and hangups. These are usually pretty annoying and induce fits of hair-pulling as we're forced to interface with far-off or simulated human beings put in place to support the technology. There are a few happy occasions, however, when the errors actually work to our advantage, creating a false but still exhilirating sense of well-being and rightness in the universe.

Today, Technorati had such a blissful little burp. Below is an undoctored screen shot (click on it for the full sized view) of the temporary mess-up that proved salve to my soul, indicating this blog was the number one ranked site on the Internet. Head-trippy times indeed.

Francis, maybe it wasn't a glitch! After all, your posts are intellectually stimulating, your poetry heartfelt, etc. A "a blissful little burp" or not, the Universe choose you to be acknowledged for all your Writings. Embrace the moment as a sign perhaps to never let your ink run dry and unlock your full potential; in your uniqueness of continued Politically, analytically, Poetically, and Personableness ways.

Thanks Jeane. Whenever I'm down, I always have your kindness to perk up my spirits. The Technorati moment passed, but I made sure I captured it in a blog post!

Anytime you have some jerk bragging on their number of page hits, you have some ammunition!
