Live blog a success

Thanks to everyone who visited my Chicago Blackhawks-Detroit Red Wings live blog at WindyCitizen.com last night. The ticker for the blog is at 380 reads right now, and I thank every person who was part of that.

It was a great success. I've done some live blogs in the past, but nothing like this, as it was a marathon that went all the way to a shootout.

I did updates every 2-5 minutes throughout the game, but it was sure tough to keep up at the end with the shootout - they go so quick. For that, I stuck to two shooters per post and I think it turned out OK. It was definitely a good time.

It was definitely a lot of fun and I plan on doing more live blogs in the future. Thanks all.

In other news, an update on visitors to my Web site. I now have had visitors from 34 of the 50 states. Still waiting on Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Delaware, Idaho, Kansas, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, New Mexico, North Dakota, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Vermont, and Wyoming! Hope to see folks from these states soon. :-)

And I have to give a quick shoutout to the Buffalo Sabres, who are 6-0-2 in their first 8 games. At home against Ottawa tomorrow. Keep it up, guys!
