Traffic at Heath Row

Forgive the non-LA post this morning, but we got to wondering if the news yesterday of the U.K. terrorist-plot arrests had increased traffic for Heath Row.

No, not Heathrow, silly. That’s an airport. We’re pretty sure traffic there was all kinds of awful. We mean Heath Row, the Gotham-based former editorial director of fastcompany.com and senior director of community development for Squidoo who became a blogger, like, the same day Al Gore invented the Internet.

Heath reports this morning that traffic on his Media Diet site yesterday was up by 1/3. Those seeking information about flight delays and security concerns were treated to Heath’s thoughts on Henry James instead.

Which, in light of everything that’s happened in the world, is kinda funny.
