2014 in review

While I’m not a prolific blogger, it is something I have maintained now for a few years and enjoy posting from time to time. I think these year ends reviews that WordPress provides are interesting. Enjoy & Happy New Year!

Jordan vs. LeBron

There have been countless comparisons between Michael Jordan and LeBron James. Since they didn’t play at the same time, any argument over who is better is purely speculation (at least in my opinion). This video came across Twitter today and I thought it was a pretty sweet comparison of the two and shows just how much talent they display on the court.

2012 in review

This is one of the bonuses of blogging on WordPress. The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog. Some of this stuff may or may not be interesting to readers, but I think it’s kind of cool.

Here’s an excerpt:

4,329 films were submitted to the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. This blog had 17,000 views in 2012. If each view were a film, this blog would power 4 Film Festivals

Blog Stats

internet-statistics I consider myself an “occassional blogger.” I know there are some people out there who post something everyday and actually support themselves through blogging. Not sure I would be up for that, but more power to those who can do that.

I’ve been blogging on WordPress for a few years now. My first post occurred on September 15, 2009. Since that time I’ve had a total of 423 posts (this one actually makes 424). I have picked up a few followers along the way, which I think is kind of cool. I’ve had 24,717 views of my blog and the highest was over 220 hits in one day just last month.

While I didn’t go back and look through all my posts, I know the majority of them have to do with books I have read, reposts from our blogs (especially other student ministers), stuff about my kids and family and then other random stuff.

I like how WordPress provides information on number of visits, comments made and different parts of the globe where people have visited. I’ve had visits from the UK, Canada, India, the Philippines and other countries. My guess is they run across the blog and then clicked off to somewhere else.

It’s been fun putting stuff up here and getting a few bits of feedback. It’s a good place just to voice something new, brag on my family or echo a great thought from someone else. So, if you are a follower or occasional visitor, thanks for swinging by!

2011 in review

My first blog post was on September 15, 2009. I am not a prolific blogger, but have enjoyed updating it over the past several months.

This year, WordPress sent this summary of my blog for 2011. It may not be of much interest to most, but I thought it was pretty cool.

Enjoy!
