Sometime in the last few hours, Beware of the Blog had it's one millionth hit!
If you were the millionth person to check us out, step forward and collect your free toaster. We're working on an honor system here people, so no false claims please. The toaster emits sparks while toasting, but other than that, it works really well.
Seriously, thanks to all of our authors, readers and commenters for helping us reach this milestone.
Here are MP3s of ten "million" songs as a way of showing our gratitude:
William S Burroughs - Millions of Images
The Homosexuals - A Million Keys
The Runaways - I'm A Million
The Raincoats - You're A Million
Public Enemy - One Million Bottlebags
Claude King - A Million Mistakes
Bel Larks - A Million And One Dreams
Jawbreaker - Million
National Lampoon - Land A Million
XTC - Millions
Thank you mate :)

Actually, you've just reached 1 million page views. That's not exactly the same as 1 million hits. Page views are usually double, if not triple the amount of unique hits a page receievs.

Nine Million Rainy Days - Jesus & Mary Chain

Actually James, you've got it backwards - page views are a much more accurate indicator of site traffic, as hits are often many, many times that of unique views for a given page. See the links below for reference:
