Only Hillel could compare O’Reilly to a Food Site

Interesting traffic analysis of various sites when it comes to links to a cookbook. Just shows that it’s not the quantity of audience that matters — it’s the quality.

“There’s a whole bunch of funny stuff here. The most interesting (I think) is that the food section of a major metropolitan newspaper drove less than half of the downloads of the O’Reilly blog and only a few more than Accidental Hedonist – another seattle based food information source.
