In 19-year period this blog as had 1.23 million hits

In recent weeks this blog has informed readers of the hits it receives and where it is being read.

There has been a steady increase in readership all over the world; in the last 24-hour period there were over 8,000 hits across Russia. In that same period it was read in at least 40 countries around the world. But in that same period the analytics say that there have been no hits in Ireland. That’s difficult to understand, as in that same period it was actually read in the country.

It often happens when the analytics show heavy readership around the world, the same table gives zero readership for Ireland. And if there is a low readership around the world, then Ireland will be top of the list.

Confusing, at least.

There have been 1.35 million hits on this blog since it first appeared in 2007.

And the Irish Dominicans would never ask the author of this blog to place a full stop on an envelope; more confusion. But maybe a badge of honour.

A prison chaplain stresses in an upcoming article in Conversations that it’s only through our brokenness  that the cross and resurrection can be grasped in faith.

That makes sense.
