fun with search terms, and hats

so Ken at Hockey Gone Wild noticed that people had found his blog via a search for "fun winter hockey hats," and put up an enjoyable hat-related post, with a surprise link in it (I'll ruin the surprise at the bottom of this post). it made me think how I really need to see what search terms people use to find this blog ("panty jackpot" maybe? look it up in the tags), but it looks like I have to actually install something, it's not automatically in Blogger. so, since I can't do that yet, a little fun with Google and Google Images searches of my main Flickr account, where I have a lot of sports-related photos posted. well, ballpark and arena photos, not so much action shots.



most of the searches make sense; they're for specific places, and I get hits because I have pictures of those places. but I get odder ones (all examples from the past couple days): "bleak bedrooms," "funny students," "making friends on amtrak," "$2.89," "pictures of poignantly," "drunk people falling down." that last one may very well led someone to a Wrigley Field or United Center photo.

sports ones included:  "chicago wolves arena with fans," "mall of america field," "joe louis arena," "jerry uht park" (that's Erie, PA--I must be one of the only people with photos of Erie online, because it turns up a lot in searches), "buffalo memorial auditorium demolition," "secret stadium sauce" (I think that was Miller Park).

my Blackhawks home game photos, though I'm now about 10 games behind in posting them, are getting results: "united center blackhawks," "united center madhouse on madison," "united center lemonhead," "united center empty."

oh, and right before I started to belatedly write this post, a new post on Google Analytics at Hockey Night in Buffalo showed up, how about that? I promise to install that soon so I can give you something more entertaining. I also wanted a new Blackhawks winter hat to have a more fun photo than the one below, but either the style I want doesn't exist or they were out of it at the Blackhawks store this week...
