WES BRYAN MY LIFE IN MUSIC - TECHNOLOGY UPDATE - STATS and CTNWB OUR YOUTUBE STATION!

It's April 2014 and we're slowly updating this Google Blog, which has been written since  August 2007 and in that time has gotten a number of expired links, YouTube videos, and so on.  Eventually we will replace all expired videos with new ones that have no commercials, as possible and rethink our CTNWB station.  (Someone else has a YouTube station called WES BRYAN - MY LIFE IN MUSIC which has no relationship with us.)

We take pride in this project, know that some of you use it for research, and want it to stand as a useful, informative, and beautiful Blog! 

In summer 2009 Google installed a simple stat's function on all Bloggers, and since then we give it a look once in a while.  As of April 8 2014 Google is reporting that we've enjoyed 63,703 hits. 

One of the things that's come up is that from time to time some other stats company shows up or sneaks up and broadcasts its take on our stats as well its take on the selling price of the blog - which isn't for sale! These are commercial enterprises that we have no relationship with.

And we would never agree that the total value of a blog is all about hits anyway!  How can you put a price on a teenager reading about Eddie Cochran for the first time or evaluate the treasure of a free paper doll of Elvis Presley from Dover Publications or the connection an old friend has made?

Never once since it's happened that a strange stats company has reported stats to the world have they been equal to the stats Google Blogger reports, which is always many more hits to the blog.  Of course, we never did write just to get stats.  But we trust Google over these other stat companies.

We've stayed to our subject pretty much with is EARLY ROCK AND ROLL, ROCKABILLY, THE COVER TUNE ERA, THE SINGER SONGWRITER SCENE, THE BRITISH INVASION of AMERICA and the AMERICAN INVASION OF BRITAIN.  We've never intended to cover the entire history of Rock and Roll!  Just like the title says this is WES BRYAN - MY LIFE IN MUSIC!

We notice hits from a variety of countries and on which posts seem to be the most interesting to our readers and it is fascinating to know that someone on a computer from some lesser known location of the world reads us - thus the THANK YOU to our READERSHIP posts.  We never post a country that Google hasn't shown us to be reading.  So even as we do this update, we've got about 1500 hits a month... on older posts and newer.

AND WE THANK YOU for READING WES BRYAN - MY LIFE IN MUSIC!
