Monday I had the mixed blessing be the top Google search result for the query “Jason Ray UNC.” I was pleased to get lots of visitors but was sad that the reason they visited was because Jason died.
When I noticed the hit count for my first entry about Jason, I thought it prudent to update the post with information on where donations could be sent. I hope people took advantage of that.
That first post instantly became the most-read MT.Net post ever, with close to 3000 views. I only wish the circumstances were a little better. I think Jason posted a lot to the walled-off, so-called “social networking” sites like Facebook and Myspace but because Google doesn’t venture there few results came back for his own pages.
