A preemptive strike
I’m sure the folks at KSFO/ABC Radio/Disney are aware of the buzz their little story has raised since the weekend, so let me throw something out there for them to think about.
I imagine their first thought is to try to track down all the sites that are hosting audio clips from KSFO and serve C&D letters. Good luck! But in case they’re wondering just how many people might already be aware of the story, here’s some traffic info.
The Zen Cabin has received nearly 450 requests for zipped files in the last 7 days. We could call that an average of almost 225 requests for each zip (wma and mp3), though I’m sure there have been more requests for the mp3 zip. I don’t have the exact breakdown – but let’s call it 400 requests for zipped KSFO mp3s.
Audio clips are hosted on probably a dozen other sites, if not more. Worldwide.
In the last week, Online BlogIntegrity has seen:
5,724 Visits 10,279 Page Views
Not bad, for a pissant little blog on the Blogger network, that most people never heard of before. Guess how many of those visits occurred since Jan. 4th. Go on – guess!

I would guess that more people have heard KSFO’s moronic jackassery via the internets in the last four days than heard it live on the air when it was broadcast. But I’ve always been an optimist.
