the blog quebecois

Hmm. My Google ads seem fixated on a particular method of underwater propulsion which I mentioned a couple of posts below. And judging by the number of clicks they're getting, there don't seem to be many enthusiasts of the Silent Service among my readers.

So, time to shake things up a bit. Having absolutely nothing to write about would pose a problem, though. What's everybody looking for, then?

Google has a neat page called the Zeitgeist, which tracks the most popular queries it gets each week. The most recent (as of Mar. 21) up-and-comers:

1. St. Patricks Day
2. Terri Schiavo
3. NCAA
4. Scott Peterson
5. The Incredibles
6. Easter
7. Li'l Kim
8. Demi Moore
9. Robert Blake
10. Regina Lasko

Now, an unscrupulous blogger would try to somehow work all those names and phrases into a post and cause Google's mighty search engine to rate that page very high in its index, causing many -- including, I would think, a fair number of submersible vehicle collectors -- to rush to his site. But that would be too much work.

I'll just list them and see what happens.
