I looked through the statistic pages linked above and figured out why Seattle is the #1 city: MSN (Bing now, I guess) crawlers.

They account for 7 of the top 10 IPs accessing Chief Delphi, and quite a few more of the top spots once you expand that list. They either trace back to Redmond or "unknown".

The stats script was last updated in 2005, 3 years before chrome was released.

Could this mean that Google crawlers are causing all the San Francisco traffic?

Looking at the varius things that bring up CD in searching, I'm a little scared. "the opposite of loneliness" is the third highest search that give CD for this month.

You'd be surprised by how big FIRST is in Washington State. There's a reason they split the Seattle regional into two seperate fields in the same event center and gave us Spokane. We have three FRC teams in our suburban school district not too far south of Downtown Seattle alone, and more nearby.

It's gratifying to discover that Minnesota ranks second in the US for the past 12 months, but we're only 10th for all years. We've got a ways to climb still, but with 150+ teams and 4 regionals next year, we'll get there :)

These are some cool, detailed insights. I like how the misspelling of "cheif delpi" makes the top searches list :D
