Wow. Selenian Boondocks officially passed the 400,000 site visits mark sometime this afternoon. For a blog mostly focused on such a small niche topic (space technology, politics, and business), it’s kind of cool to reach a milestone like this. Thanks everyone for all the support, especially when the blogging ends up being so light sometimes! I’ll try to keep cranking out the interesting reading.

Well, I’m a bit of a fanboy, which is why I come here regularly. I think a lot of your traffic can be attributed to the loyal linking of some of the other sites that aren’t so narrowly focused, like Rand.
I enjoy reading your blog. Thanks to you Jon and your contributing authors I look forward to reading the latest.
First of all congratulations, it’s pretty impressive. I don’t follow space matters as closely as i used to (I think it’s partially caused by a slightly debilitating illness called “nasaus nausea”) but still try to keep up with or at the very least skim everything here and over at rlvnews (but months of arocket and space review backlog proves too much for now). If anything perhaps selenian boondocks is a bit too interesting as no matter who writes it’s all too easy to become engrossed thinking about whatever is the topic or even other issues related to it.
Not complaining ^_^
