Twice recently, after reviewing my referrer logs I noticed a large number of hits from search engines that seemed unlikely. For example, searching for Leica Photography shows one of my posts on the first page of results. The other is Used Digital Rebel, where I come up in the number one spot. I won’t complain, but neither of these makes much sense.
At the end of Swimming Pool, I just sat there, staring at the screen, knowing I was completely missing something. Nearly a week has passed and I have a few thoughts, but nothing convincing. At first this frustrated me to no end, but now I’m starting to like the feeling. Seems most of the reviewers had many of the same impressions.
But in its final frames, “Swimming Pool” leaves us splashing about in a puddle of uncertainty, and a good mystery ought to answer the questions it poses, oughtn’t it?
I’ve always thought that it was a mistake to send an email and assume that it’s a done deal. Seems I was right – according to an InformationWeek study, up to 40% of all valid emails never reach their destination.
