http://kiwiblogbus.com/2012/05/13/waterworks-surely-the-best-fun-you-can-have-with-recycled-objects/

I'm pleased in a way to get extra hits but not really if it's just a blip and they aren't "genuine"

Congratulations, you have just gone viral!

Sometimes you can see what people have stumbled and sometimes you can't; are the majority of your hits going to one post? If so, that's the one they Stumbled. It means they recommended you, so it's all good news.

A large majority (439) are from stumble upon and I cannot understand why the sudden increase from there... I click on the referal link and it just give me a "you've been stumbled" page.

Do they do something like freshly pressed?
any one know why I may have the sudden referrals today?

cheers
