Since the post frequeny became higher on my blog I was taking more often a look into my stats thus I had to experience a couple of high peaks during the last three weeks. Up to 200 uniqe visitors per day is a normal number but 500 is way too high.

I could explain the first two by posting the shortened URLs of some articles on facebook and twitter but I didn’t blog anything the past few days except the One Word A Day entries so the latest peak is absolutely nonsense. A closer look on the referers breaks the secret. It seems that Baidu, a Chinese search engine, is crawling my blog every fifteen minutes on some days but what for? There’s nothing too interesting stuff for them …

Do they expect pixel-encoded messages in the picture of my pi cake which I baked ten days ago?
