It's been a busy couple of weeks here on haverkamp.com. Not busy by truly busy website standards, but certainly busy compared to what we normally see around here.

The traffic has pretty much all concerned my post on the proposed ABA standards interpretation for 301(a). At first, it was just a small bump, when the post garnered a mention at Legal Underground. Then on Friday, everything went nuts... Well, nuts for around here.

Someone apparently took my post and started spreading it around to various forums. The biggest traffic generator appears to have been Jd Undergound. The always lovely AutoAdmit.com picked it up, also generating more traffic to my about page than I had previously seen. Finally, someone posted it in a comment on Above the Law, which caused a reader to suggest that I stop "linkwhoring [my] pathetic blog." Wasn't me, pal. This must be the kind of stuff the A-listers see written about themselves everyday.

Since then, I've seen a lot of ripples. The post appears to be running through mailing lists at various California law schools. At first, there were lots of Whittiers. Then came the Chapmans. Today, oddly, was a string of Santa Claras.

What sort of impact are we talking about? Here's a graph for the last few weeks. The first bump is from Legal Underground. The second is the array of Friday bumps.
