Fark! The hits are coming in!

Today's daft Daily Post page three story (also on our website) about a North Wales poodle who has been made the victim of identity theft was this afternoon picked up by a website called fark.com which promotes weird and wonderful stories from around the world. Fark has a huge following and the hits are pouring into dailypost.co.uk from all corners.
We have a scarily powerful monitoring tool that gives us updated information every few seconds about how many hits we have had, how many people are visiting our website and what stories they are reading, even which town or part of the world they live in.
It's a bit different from selling newspapers. We have to wait for the return figures to come through the day after publication to find out how well a paper has sold.
I'm hoping a bit of good news might shift a few extra copies tomorrow. Our hard fought campaign for Samantha Cousins, a North Wales victim of the NHS postcode funding lottery scandal, has ended in victory. Sam, who has Hodgkin's lymphoma, will now have a potentially life-saving bone marrow operation, paid for by the NHS.
That's one newspaper campaign I am desperately relieved to have won and I wish Samantha and her young family all the very best.
Another story tomorrow features an interview with the driver of the Porsche involved in the tragedy on the A55 at the weekend in which a young dad died.
In his alternatively speaking column, assistant editor Mark Brittain is examining the literary achevements of zeppelin-chested DD-list celebrity Jordan.
You know what, I don't think he really rates her as a writer. He also ponders the choice of name of her baby daughter, Princess Tiaamii.
And we have two pages of coverage from the rain-savaged Royal Welsh Show. I'm heading there tomorrow in my ill-fitting boots and my horrible Vauxhall which has about as much traction as an ice skate so that's me stuck in a muddy field pleading for rescue.
Wish me luck.
