894,850 hits
and closing on a Million!
Chaos reigned since the announcement of a Special (as yet
undisclosed prize) for the One Millionth Visitor to the ever popular Blog, Colombo Medgrads 1962.
This blog is about new entrants to the Colombo Medical
Faculty of the University of Ceylon (as it was then known) in June 1962, and
set up by Dr Lakshman Abeyagunawardene
A spokesman we contacted
said, “On 5-2-2016, the Blog had 885,954 hits.
This is a hit rate of about 200 a day. (8896 over 44
days)
We are short of 105.150 to reach a Million. if our hit
rate continues at approx 200 per day (average), we need another 520 days to
reach a Million. This is in about 17 months.
Based on these figures, we expect the 1 Million mark to
be reached around July-August 2017:
The publicity phrase "Go on a blogging blitz and
let us reach a Million hits" is reported to have gone viral.
