Power to the people!

Hello!



People of the Earth, how are you this morning, afternoon, night?



As you know I have installed a counter, a flag counter, in my blog. I was seeing it yesterday and today, I noticed that there were only visitors from Canada and the US appearing on it. Was this? I asked myself. Has the rest of the world forgotten about me? It cannot be! So I log-in to the stats of were my blog is written from and I noticed that it wasn't the case. I had many visitors from many places hitting my blog. So what the beep is going on?? Maybe the counter is not compatible with the company that hosts my blog. Let's investigate.


I went to the site where the counters is from and faster than you can say get a life, I noticed the problem. To be able to get the other flags from different countries I have to dish out $30 dollars a year! What?? This is highway robbery! Why do I have to dish out $30 dollars? Nonsense, I will remove the counter from my blog. I will not belittle any country that is not Canada or the US. Don't get me wrong, I love these countries this is where I'm from. But other people from other countries such as Korea, Slovania, Saudi Arabia, Sweden and many other come and visit my blog. It doesn't matter that they're not the bulk of my readers but they are still taking the time to drop by my blog and read my stupidities. So I will only leave one counter on my blog the one that shows you how many hits I gotten and not the one of the flags.


What I'm going to do is keep on looking for free counter that can illustrate the diversity of people that visit my blog. I apologize for having misslead the world into thinking that it was only the US and Canada that follow me.



That being said I wish you all a great morning, afternoon, or night.
