Well, I check on my own GeoCities website everyday, to see if the visitor counter has gone up or if anyone has signed the guestbook. This usually happens if I get mentioned on the alt.bigfoot USENET group. It’s also nice if any new webrings have added me.

If ChrisCTP is still checking [Realtor.com](http://Realtor.com), his real estate agent must be questioning his commitment to buying a house.
