This freezer unit with cube, block, and crush ice surely has character!

Signs of Hawaii: Keep the Country Cropped
Not sure if these bumper stickers are still there at the Windward end of the Pali, but someone wants to make sure we keep the country cropped.
Signs of Hawaii: Las Vegas, Paris, Tokyo, Waimanalo
Not sure where I saw this sign, but I thought it was entertaining:
Las Vegas • Paris • Tokyo • Waimanalo
Cadillac Escalades Are Hot
Once again, the Cadillac Escalade is nationally one of the most stolen vehicles. So if you got one of these pimpin’ beasts, look out for its hotness!
But in Hawaii, keep an eye on your 1995 Honda Civic. This aging, popular classic is the theft of choice for Hawaii autos.

Club 939 Is the Culprit…
So that explains the demographic of Pulpconnection viewership. Mr. 939 said he favorited his favorite pulp site on computers at Club 939, so of course, the Alexa.com demographic is accurate:
females who are in the age range 18-24, are graduate school educated and browse this site from work
Makes perfect sense! 😉 Now only if Mr. 939 provides a pic as evidence, that would seal the deal!
In July 2009…
In July 2009, the family enjoyed the hospitality of the Four Season Lanai, staying at Manele Bay and the Lodge at Koele for a wedding. And who knew the Four Seasons has an active social networking campaign, engaging customers on Twitter and even giving Twitter treats!
In July 2009, the Hawaii State Farm Fair featured a watermelon eating contest which my brother-in-law dominated. Witness.
In July 2009, Pulpconnection had serious technical issues so I upgraded to Dreamhost Private Servers and have been loving it.
In July 2009, Bytemarks presented his informal list of Top 20 Social Media Geeks in Hawaii, and I’m still honored to be recognized.
In July 2009, I saw Jorge Garcia from LOST… again.
Such a busy time was July of 2009. See all the posts from July 2009.
Slacking, There’s Stats for That
There’s stats for everything including slacking.

Doesn’t bode well if your born in the early 80’s working insurance in Missouri. Or perhaps born in the 70’s working in the public sector in Hawaii.
Imitations Abound

Top Traffic Sources for Pulpconnection
For June through July 2010, here are the top traffic sources for Pulpconnection according to Google Analytics.
- Google organic search
- Google.com referral
- Bing
- Yahoo
- Feedburner
- Gleesongs.com
- widget.linkwithin.com
- google.ca
The visits from Google dwarf Bing and Yahoo by a factor of ten. I’m surprised to see Feedburner that high on the list. Not sure what’s up with Gleesongs.com. Interestingly enough the visual linkwithin widget is contributing to traffic, more so than Twitter. Facebook wasn’t in the top 10 but came in at #14.
