			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello! Thanks for dropping by.</p>
<p>This morning, <a href="http://sheaman42.stumbleupon.com/" target="_blank">a kind soul</a> recommended this blog to <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/" target="_blank">StumbleUpon.com</a> and we have been experiencing a flood of hits since then.</p>
<p>It is really astonishing to see the blog stats go crazy. I thought my eyes were bluffing me, but we were indeed getting <strong>10 times our previous record high</strong>. It made our traffic graph look like a flat line with a sharp spike at the end.</p>
<p>So thanks very much, I really appreciate it. Hope you will stick around and check out the older (but still relevant) posts. Don&#8217;t forget to <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/StarBamboo" target="_blank">add our RSS feed to your favourite reader</a> or <a href="http://www.feedburner.com/fb/a/emailverifySubmit?feedId=966632&amp;loc=en_US" target="_blank">join our email subscription</a>. <img src='http://www.starbamboo.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I&#8217;ve heard others talk about the Digg effect, where a web site featured prominently on <a href="http://www.digg.com" target="_blank">Digg.com</a> can experience a surge in traffic. But experiencing it today really made me aware of how powerful the Internet is. In our own way, everyone has the power to influence opinions and decision.</p>
<p>So I&#8217;ve added Digg buttons to some of the more important (and hopefully better written) articles (such as <a href="http://starbamboo.wordpress.com/2007/06/13/why-is-singapore-discouraging-hybrid-cars/" target="_blank">this one</a>), please do click on them to vote so that others may read them too.</p>
<p>Thanks again for your support and encouragement!</p>
