Everyone on the Internet is Canadian! I figured that out years ago, after I saw the following:
* Mike Wong, author of <a >this site</a> and <a >this site</a>
* “Tailsteak”, author of <a >this site</a> and <a >the comic One Over Zero</a> (trust me, the comic gets better later on)
* “aleksa”, SmackJeeves user and friend of mine

Oh, also, comex might be Canadian, as his name seems to be a pun on Comox, a city in British Columbia.

Note that when only small numbers of people are involved, Alexa can be rather inaccurate; what’s likely been discovered is that four Alexa reporters have visited BlogNomic, and three of them live in Canada.

Well, still, blognomic traffic’s shot up 560% in the last 3 months.

Actually, that seems like a huge jump. Not sure what to think of it.
