Recent Burst of Popularity… How the Heck did that Happen?

Well, I don’t know what is going on - The last three days, I have noticed my blog go from an average of 6 feed subscribers per day to 59 subscribers as of today. By examining my Feedburner stats, I can see that while some if the increase is just added pickup from bloglines and similar services, I ahve also gained 30+ readers who are reading this via real clients…

So, I wanna know - who is reading this? What type of people are you? Programmers? SEOs? Web Developers? Something else entirely?

If you could be so kind as to leave a few comments letting me know a bit about who you are, and how you found this blog, it would do a lot to ease my confusion.

Thanks alot, and thanks for reading!

    Just added it into reader.google.com now than I use a decent RSS reader. I’m a software architect, I do web programming too, etc. Depends of the needs of my customers.

    I picked your blog up from Damien Tanner. He posted a list of blogs he reads in a recent entry.

    I work a day job as a sysadmin/hacker type and dream of doing more Ruby and Rails at night.
