A blog by any other name….

..may not get so many hits.

OK, so I’ve had this blog since June 2004 and so far managed to write a total of zero entries. My friend Duder started her Blog in July (practically August) and has managed to amass a total of 42 blog entries to date. With her support, encouragement and threats of physical violence I have finally managed to create a post. Yea me!

Duder’s latest goading via e-mail informed me that 55 people have visited my profile only to find my blog empty. Checking myself showed 75 hits, either way that’s a lot of people coming to the D Spot. Kinda makes me wonder what they expect to find. So if you’re here reading this leave a comment. But I don’t take requests.

My resume post on Workopolis has (slightly) fewer hits and there’s actually something there to read. Which is kind of depressing because 50+ employers have read my resume and not one has called. Perhaps changing my resume title to The D Spot and calling myself Big D on Workopolis will help. It’s all about how you sell yourself. Er, market yourself I should say. Hmm, now I’m really thinking about that. A social experiment if you will. I’ll create a more, shall we say, alluring profile and provocative title and see how many hits I get. Perhaps I can even get a government grant. Hmm now the cogs are turning. I was watching ET or some entertainment magazine show last week and they did an ‘Ugly Betty’ test. They had some scrumptious blonde celebrity/actress/playboy bunny get professionally ugly Betty’d and then video taped people’s responses to her in public asking directions/help etc. They also of course taped her as her normal bunny material self in the same scenarios and of course people (men and women) were falling over themselves to help her. The ugly Betty version almost got trampled and treated rudely, and at best, simply ignored.

Off I go, stay tuned for Big D, the Resume!!!!
