List: This quarter in analytics
In lieu of a dissertation post, tonight I present: odd info from my blog stats
Most popular search term that has lead to my blog: "knocked up controversy" (clearly this post)
However, if you take the results from "facebook remove friend" and add it to all the other search terms that are variations on "remove" "friend" and "facebook", the result greatly outweighs the Knocked Up hits. So for the record: if you remove a friend on Facebook, no one ever gets notified. How do I know this? It's a long story, but it's actually not my long story, so it's not getting told. I also know that if you reject a friend request on Facebook, nothing happens either.
Edited to add: A further test has confirmed that indeed nothing happens when you remove a friend from your Facebook list (i.e., they receive no notification). So go on, people, passive-aggressively break up with your friends online (or would that be your online friends?). Oh, the Internet. You are good for so many things.
Some of the odder search strings that lead back here:
brothel twickenham
chiswick brothels
eloping in london
neighbours having sex
"jena malone" "pride and prejudice" annoying
underbite keira knightley
"globe and mail" + "book review" + schadenfreude
hollywood actors who are credit card fraud victims (twice?)
And my personal favourite:
elizabeth bennett, drill sergeant
