'during this time I published a googlewack hidden in my blog – the words "belle de jour" "brooke magnanti" and "methylsalicylate" were published and available in google’s index on a single page on the internet – my weblog. this "coincidental" collection of links could in no way reveal belle’s identity. but I wondered if anybody else knew the secret and felt that analysing my web traffic might confirm my long-held belief. if someone googled "belle de jour" "brooke magnanti", I would see it in my referrers for linkmachinego.'
