NEW: TUBE CHALLENGE STATS!
Posted: 31 Jan 2007, 09:44
OK, as Geoff asked for some stats, I may as well shove some up here. I'll also publish the stats at the end of each month for the sake of continuity.
Since November 2005 I have been running <a href="http://www.statcounter.com" target="_blank">Statcounter</a> on this website, allowing me to see how many hits we're getting, which pages are being looked at, and all sorts of other interesting stuff.
Before I put January 2007's stats up, here are the stats for each quarter of 2006. I'm ignoring November and December 2005 for the sake of choosing a convenient cut-off point.
