Interesting blog stats

Ok, so they might only be interesting to me... All stats are since 28 July, when I added Google Analytics.

The most popular screen resolution for people looking at this page is 1024x768. I assume this is the resolution on the computer at my parents house, among others. The lowest 2 resolutions were 240x320 and 800x600. These people are either half blind or their browser was lying to analytics. The largest resolution was 3600x1200, which I assume is my laptop and 2nd screen at work. (Yes, that is a lot of space, and yes, I like it very much.)

Colors: 32-bit - 179; 24-bit - 62; 16-bit - 14. 6 or 7 colors is all I really need...

Platform: Windows - 241 (Of which only 5 are not Windows XP. 2 were actually Win 98...); Linux - 7; Mac - 4. Who are those Mac people out there?

Browser - 65% Internet Explorer; 33.33% Firefox; 1.18% Safari; 0.35% Opera. Good work on the firefox out there. Lets keep it up people. Three people had IE version 4.0.1 - you SERIOUSLY need to consider upgrading...

Most people spend 0-10 seconds on the site. (Fast readers) 1/6 of visitors spend 1 to 5 minutes on the site. Someone actually spent 30 minutes on the site, I assume they forgot and walked away from their computer. Maybe the large number of people who spend 0-10 seconds means either I don't have interesting enough content, or I don't use enough big words.

68% of visitors are 'new', 32% are 'returning'. This is since July 28th, that day everyone was new... 68% was the normalized number after about 7 days.

17 people have visited 26-50 times. Thanks for visiting. 80 people have visited and never come back. I'm sure there have been one or two of them who were offended and went for a walk.

Average pageviews per visit is 1.62.

Still no visits from an unknown location in the Middle East, and nothing yet from China.

The low resolution(240x320) and the IE 4.0.1 was probably me. I have a PDA running Pocket PC. It has it's own standard for everything.

Mister Anonymous, I'm not really sure what you are getting at, but the most exotic place I have a hit from in the past week is Keerbergen, Belguim.

That didn't format like I wanted it to... It goes Res/# of visits/% of total

Anonymous viewer,

I know the reason why I do not see your location. The answer is "Satellite Uplink", and you localization is controlled...

Sad but true, anyway, don't let that stop you from visiting...
