Out or around 500 hits in under a month, 275 were googlebot, and only 4 
were 404'd.

The hit list looks more like genuine gawkers that anything special.  
Tourista's, looking at nitros9 and a few pix from the various links.  
Nothing I could say was going viral. ;)  In fact, a few could have been me, 
making sure all the links worked.  I do that occasionally just to make sure 
nothing went bump in the night. I should see if I can train it to ignore 
me.
