What Google thinks of this site
In theory has more than the three or four readers a day that I expected and, interestingly, almost no reader comes from a random web search. (As opposed to, say, a targeted search like "Luca Trevisan in theory".)
The exceptions are interesting, especially because they show what Google thinks that this site is relevant for.
Draw your own conclusions.
p.s. these are the rankings before this entry was posted. Your results may vary.
The exceptions are interesting, especially because they show what Google thinks that this site is relevant for.
- Some readers were directed here when searching for "P NP", a search for which In Theory is in the top 20.
- A few readers came searching for "feminism for dummies", a search for which we are ranked number 3.
- Most amusingly, a reader came here searching for "evil masterminds", a sentence that I never wrote. (The power of anchortext and google-bombing.) This is site is ranked number 3 for this search.
- Finally, some readers have found this place as the number 1 result for "Beijing stinky tofu".

Luca, what do you think about the rich-get-richer dynamics w.r.t citing papers?

Luca, your travelogue on China was very entertaining and a great way to introduce your site and yourself.
Give us an 'origins' story sometime--how did you become one of the evil masterminds behind complexity theory?

Luca, some people read "syndicated" copies of your weblog (such as this one), Myself, for example.
