I usually have around 50 to 80 visits per day in this blog; I’m not that famous after all, mind you; it must be the polish family name, people must have a hard time typing it ;)
Today I checked my report at Google Analytics… and this is what I saw: more than 600 visits for yesterday alone! Not only that, but I’ve had 10 comments posted in many articles of this blog, just yesterday, while usually I get one or two per week:

Apparently yesterday’s Erlang article was the main drive for all of these visits:

It this means anything about Erlang, well, I think I must learn more about it, faster! This is amazing!
Thanks everyone who came, and I hope you enjoyed the reading. Please feel free to leave comments, in any post that you like. I love to hear your feedback on what I write.
Update, 4 hours later the publication of this article: It seems that many of you are coming to this blog from dzone.com… welcome and thanks for your visits! I have to tell you that, at the moment, my Google Analytics stats show that more than 700 people have come here today! Thanks to all of you!!

It might not be anything to do with the language. Erlang’s equations are used widely in a number of fields, including one of mine, telecommunications. Check out Erlang-C on Wikipedia.
