On March 19th, my Flickr Photostream seems to have gotten nigh onto 3,000 hits — while no single photo got more than eight hits (and that was Margaret’s and my wedding invitation; second place was PIppa’s Crime Scene Halloween costume). I assume that this reflects the activity of some bot or spider, but it’s a curious blip on the otherwise placid waters of my Flickr catalogue.
Both myself and a colleague had big spikes for no good reason on the 23rd of March. It appears as though these spikes happen with some regularity for no particular reason.
