About Last Night

Terry Teachout on the arts in New York City

TT: Linked beyond recognition

November 6, 2003 by Terry Teachout

I don’t know exactly what the rest of the blogosphere saw in “About Last Night” this week, but whatever it was, it must have been hot. Our Site Meter got a little weird after midnight, but we seem to have received somewhere between 2,400 and 2,600 page views on Wednesday. Not as many as on Tuesday, but well over twice as many as usual. Presumably some of these transients will settle down and visit us daily, or at least again. To all of you, and to the many wonderful bloggers who linked to “About Last Night,” Our Girl and I doff our hats and tip our wigs. You’re the best.


I only just got back from tonight’s playgoing, and I now have just 11 hours in which to (A) sleep and (B) review Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, The Violet Hour, and The Long Christmas Ride Home for Friday’s Wall Street Journal, so chances are that I won’t be posting all that much on Thursday. I haven’t heard from OGIC since yesterday afternoon (it is tomorrow, right?), so I can’t tell you what she’s got planned, but I’m sure she’ll keep the home fires burning.

At any rate, it’s more than likely that there’s something here you haven’t seen before, so scroll and browse and check back with us later. We’ll try not to keep you waiting.


UPDATE: Site Meter righted itself and spit out a final number for Wednesday of about 2,650 page views. That’ll do.
