Just for fun, I checked my site stats to see what kind of readership I had killed with my sporadic writing lately. Imagine my surprise to see that without an Instalanch, my daily visits have climbed from roughly 700 per day to 1700 per day.
Now, I think I write fairly well, but this just can't be right. So I investigated deeper and what I found out is that several other bloggers have linked to certain images I've posted in the past, most commonly images from 9/11. I'd noticed a couple of pages a few months ago, but I didn't worry about it because it really wasn't a drain on my bandwidth.
Well there must be a lot of folks linking it now because I have used 13 G of bandwidth this month. While I'd love to keep supporting other bloggers, I'm not going to pay any extra bandwidth charges to do so. So those pictures will be removed from the entries. If you've linked to them, that's why they aren't working anymore.
