# snarfed bridgy traffic bump has levelled off over the last ~3w, but still 10-50x higher than baseline before. all real users in browsers, all direct, ie not search or from links (but could be from short url wrappers, eg tco). i still mostly don't know who they all are. best guess so far is [jgmac1106]'s evangelism to education/google+ refugees. fascinating mystery.
