At the risk of casting dispersions on anyone's bog's literary merit, the number of hits are often (but not always) independent of that quality. My top three are 'Ilan Koo' (an obscure space and aeronautics engineer who writes lovely poetry), 'Sorry - a useful form' (a silly fill-in-the-spaces apology form) and the quite worthy series I did on tonal drawing, led by the post 'Tonal drawing exercises - graphite'.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12453125929159161583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-5993588136027377572013-10-02T20:06:47.577+01:002013-10-02T20:06:47.577+01:00Mr. Pudding it is.

Slightly more interesting, no.2 was one about Barça Football Club (10,000). And in at the no.3 spot a piece on ELO, Best Pop Group Ever (after the Beatles) - but only got a mere 980 visits.<br />Interesting, I'd never looked at these statistics before, only been looking at the total visits to the blog.
