USA Today has this section called "Hot Sites" that sometimes is printed in the paper, but is always on their website. Its huge exposure, for my literature site the first day gave me an extra 1800 uniques -- but my literature site didn't make it into print, just their website.

Just found out my survival site was featured (http://www.usatoday.com/tech/hotsites/08-08-hotsites.htm) on monday, but I don't get the paper, and I'm curious to see if it made it into print or not. (fyi, 700 uniques on monday for my survival site).

I looked in the Aug. 8 edition and didn't see it. Perhaps it was in the Aug. 7th - but that's MIA (I'm at the library).

What about today's? I think they're only listed one day a week.

Don't see it in 8-10 or 8-9 either. I'm guessing it'd be in the "Life" section?

Yesterday I had great traffic but only 50 or so uniques from USA Today so I thought maybe it was in the paper.

Looks like maybe the site got mentioned in someone's newsletter, there were alot of mail referrals.
