Of defibrillators and cardiac waveforms
September 1st, 2006I had taken a break from analyzing my website visitor statistics some time back, so it was naturally surprising to discover last week, that the number of visitors to my website had increased (and remained at) a couple orders of magnitude higher than before! To date, none of my posts have been so insightful enough for a digg or del.icio.us entry (hopefully, that will change with time!). Therefore, intrigued by this sudden traffic, I looked at the top referring websites that have been pointing people in my direction - and I discovered that my projects page has been receiving a lot of attention.
Turns out, that a search for the phrase “cardiac waveform” on Google returns my projects page in the very first page of results, thanks to my FPGA-based automatic external defibrillator project description. While an FPGA system might not be exactly what people searching for “cardiac waveforms” are looking for, the reason my page is in the top search results is because people are clicking to read more.
This is sufficient motivation for me to go ahead and complete descriptions for my other projects! In the meanwhile, you can try searching for ‘cardiac waveform’ on Google.
Here’s a link to my Projects page.
