| And unlike Kirk Cameron's birthday parties, there's going to be people at this one. |
Either way, it's hard to believe that it's been an entire year since my first post. There's so many people I'd like to thank. First and foremost - myself. I couldn't have done it without me. And actually, that's it. Just me.
As a special gift for all of you, my loyal readers, I've decided to peel back the curtain and give you another FAQS About Undocumented Facts: First Year Anniblogsary Edition! Yippee!
- Not counting this post, there were 85 posts in the first year of Undocumented Facts. That works out to basically 7 posts a month, or a post every 4 1/4 days.
- At least 7 of those posts weren't me simply posting a single image and writing 2 sentences about it, or crap I wrote 10 years ago, or Cousin Balki. I know it doesn't seem that way some times, but it's true.
- The 5 most viewed posts, according to the stats I have access to, are the following:
#4: Lame.
- The reasons #'s 1-4 above there are what they are is because at various times, some of the random pictures I've put in my posts have ended up being one of the top GIS results. For Lame. the picture was a top result for "spider-man fat," "fat black spider-man" "black fat spider man" and a variety of other combinations of those words. For a long time, if you did a Google Image Search for the phrase "bored guy" the dude at the top of my Undocumented Facts Part 2 post was the top result. Reckless Activities for Stupid People Version 5.0: Stupid Lives! is one of the top Google results if you search for "reckless activities, "stupid activities," or "activities for stupid people." And Costume Conundrum got so many views because it's a top search for "spiderman speedo." And strangely, for a while it was getting a lot of hits as a result of people doing a search for "fancy dress borat" and "fancy dress costume."

| Because nothing says "Fancy Dress" like man-toe. |
And in case anyone's wondering, my favorite post was Max to the eXtrEmE!!!! I think it's my best one. It ranks 7th in overall views.
- The top 5 countries where my viewership comes from, according to Google, are:
- Aside from the search terms listed above, the other most popular Google search that brings traffic to the blog is, not surprisingly, "undocumented facts." Granted, most of the people performing those searches are probably racist, but I'll take the traffic any way I can get it.

| They're probably looking for images closer to this than to Fancy Borat up there. |
#5: Canada
#4: Russia (I'm pretty sure this is from spam-bots and phishing attempts. But hits are hits!)
#3: United Kingdom
#2: Bahamas (Thanks, Grant and Katie!)
#1: USA. (Woo-hoo! We're number 1! USA! USA! USA!)
And for real, thanks to all of you who have taken the time to read any of my posts. Hopefully they're actually funny once in a while, and you'll all stick around for Year 2.
- Undocumented Facts has been viewed twice on a Nintendo Wii. That amuses me.
So there's some of the behind the scenes info from Undocumented Facts' first year. If you're trying to figure out the best way to celebrate this monumental event, why don't you go back to the very first post and re-read all of them in order? There's actually an overall narrative to the entire blog that only becomes apparent when you read the entire thing in order.

Batman's sticking around. Ain't that right, Batman of La Mancha?
Oh, Batman. You're such a kidder.
