Tumblr has created a fun metric combining traffic, popularity, and readership called Tumblarity™, and while my scores never approach those of most the blogs I read, I was proud yesterday to have hit a new high: 50. This was mostly because Peter “The King of Tumblr” Knox reblogged me. Then I checked my cat’s page today to discover his tumblarity went from 7 yesterday to 142 today, on the strength of all the above likes, follows, and reblogs. He was featured on SaveTheKitties.net, and on Fuck Yeah Kitties (a slightly risqué title of a hysterical site). There comes a moment in every man’s life when his cat’s blog is more popular than his own, and right now, I’m living out that timeless cliché. I’m dealing with it well, I think, but it’s served as a wake up call that I need to read more interesting articles, take great pictures in more interesting places, and perhaps ask Furio to plug my site on his from time to time.
