I decided to dig-up the searches which have landed on this weblog in the past couple of months – thinking this was a trivial venture I did a bit of grepping, only to find that the results were infeasibly large for a single blog article.

I have therefore posted the results at [www.crypticide.com] for the moment.

They may find a permanent home, later.

They also make somewhat entertaining reading – I have forced them lowercase and sorted them, but that is about all; replications serve to demonstrate how many times particular queries have been performed.

Some of them have evidently fallen foul of all the words are on the same page syndrome; others are simply out of context, and the remainder? I have no idea how they landed here.

a small sample:

“access only from within the united states”
“alan cox” pakistan
“bp ultimate” brand awareness
“david edmondson” -radioshack -scientology -uncollected -radio -shack
“jane hopkins” witch
