    Look what I found in my logfiles:
    the IP resolves to a china ip-block..
    Why would yahoo be spidering from China? or am I just posting something you guys already knew :)

    ok. I'll stop complaining about spiders from china: I just had my first ever yahoo!china
    ref-url: http://cn.websearch.yahoo.com/searc...+Belong+Together"+Richie+Valens&scch=on&ei=gb

    crazy enough, visitors address is 67.118.__.__ which is registered to Pac Bell Internet Services (USA!).

    So to get more US visitors, I have to be spidered by a chinese search engine, where Chinese-Americans (is that a word?) search for totally non Chinese stuff.. ok.. got it..

    -- kill this thread please :)
