Have I discovered a new way of attracting search engines? I posted a graph of user agents on this site two days ago, commenting on how busy google and msnbot were. Two days later, two new engines enter the lists, and are already gaining ground.

Search engines watching for mention of rivals and jumping in to compete? Well, okay, I have to admit I am paranoid. The search engines do make a big percentage of the hits, and an even bigger percentage of the transferred data: I guess only a computer can put up with reading all the way through my dull prose :-).

I also corrected the graph this time for various things which were incorrectly classed under Mozilla on the previous graph. I'm still surprised by how far ahead Firefox is (although a good chunk of them are myself, checking the site).
