24 March (Part 1) - 3,375,024 was wrong
I forgot something. When there is a series of blogs on the same subject there
is sometimes a composite version. The most recent example is @tonyofsidcup’s
pro-ULEZ argument. In such cases neither the blog nor the
composite version includes any text, instead your browser is instructed to
import a text file from elsewhere. It saves duplication and ensures that both versions of the
blog are identical. Unfortunately there are no words to count in either blog version,
hence yesterday’s count was wrong.
2012, 2019, 2020, 2021. 2023 and 2024 are affected and have grown, not by
much. From fewer than 100 extra words to around 17,500 in 2023. Difficult to see on the graph
but the total goes up to 3,406,377.
3,406,377 blogging words!
