Statistics, and a little housekeeping

During the week that this blog has been open to external viewing and postings, we have had 233 views.  The majority of these have been from the United States.  However the blog had 12 viewers from Canada and 8 from Italy(?).  Another interesting stat is shown below:


Pageviews by Browsers
Firefox
71 (34%)
Chrome
57 (27%)
Safari
40 (19%)
Internet Explorer
38 (18%)
Pageviews by Operating Systems
Windows
166 (80%)
Macintosh
40 (19%)
It would appear that the majority of PC's are running a flavor of Windows, but most folks are not using the Windows default browser, Internet Explorer.  I, of course, have to be different and have used my Mac for everything.

  1. Hello Greg
    I love how you incorporated a chart and graphs into your opening. It gives your page a different look. How are you monitoring who viewed you and what web browser used by them?

  2. Oh my goodness, I knew beforehand there were many people who favored browsers such as Firefox and Chrome over Internet Explorer, but I find this statistic very surprising. Methinks I should get with the times and try out something besides Microsoft's often temperamental browser offerings. I agree, the charts are really snazzy! :)

  3. I live in Italy :) I also need to get with the times and used something other than Internet Explorer!

  4. Just the other day my girlfriend and I were laughing at her dad because he is the only person we know who uses Internet Explorer still. I am not sure why anyone would still use it other than the fact that it is what they are used to.

  5. These kinds of statistics are ALWAYS interesting, said the other guy using Internet Explorer. Thanks, Greg!

  6. I stopped using Internet Explorer years and years ago, and every time I'm stuck using it for some reason, I always come across something that makes me go ARG! However, I too was surprised by the statistics.
