X-Ply: Can Multiply beat the world's largest sites?

Site launches on Apr.10, 2009: 0
Hits as of Apr.18, 2009: 20
Goal for May 18, 2009: 20,000













Multiply - The Blog is a psychosocialcyberexperiment.

Can a simple blog garner more hits than the world's largest websites, including Facebook, CNN.com, and the New York Time?

I think it's possible, with your help. This blog has no hidden goals. I am not going to litter the page with "traffic-attracting" schemes like celebrity pictures, hot key-words, or the like. The goal of this site is to simply multiply the hits based on "word-of-mouth": you visit the site as Visitor #34 on Apr.30, 2009, and you return on May.30, 2009 and notice you're visitor #3400. And on Dec.30, 2009, you're visitor #54,000. And next year, you're visitor #1,000,000,000.

So let's x-ply.

Here's the first graph of hits. Yes, it has a cumulative total of 20 or so hits. The Y-axis is NOT in thousands or millions.

It's 20 hits as of Apr.18, 2009.

Come back on May 18, 2009 to see if your hits is 200,000th hit.
