Here are the monthly highlights for christian-sauve.com:
1. Mmm. Numbers…
My prickly "Urchin" web stats engine tells me that…
Report for: christian-sauve.com, February 2006 Total Visitors: 6,064 Total Pageviews: 12,809 (Corrected Total: 8,369) Total Hits: 14,414 Total Bytes Transferred: 296.2MB Average Visitors Per Day: 216.57 Average Pageviews Per Day: 457.46 (Corrected Average: 298.9) Average Hits Per Day: 514.78
The "corrected" numbers take out the CSS, robots.txt, PDFs, mis-filed graphic files (ICO, GIF, JPG) and other non-public files mistakenly considered "pages" by the statistics pre-digestion engine. All results are a bit lower than last month, which is not surprising for a 28-days month.
Our top ten most popular pages are:
christian-sauve.com/index.html 409 christian-sauve.com/texts/free-movie-tickets.htm 180 christian-sauve.com/texts/worldcon-2004-noreascon4.htm 145 christian-sauve.com/reviews.html 131 christian-sauve.com/about.html 126 christian-sauve.com/reviews/movies-2001.htm 109 christian-sauve.com/texts/100films.htm 102 christian-sauve.com/reviews/movies-2002.htm 99 christian-sauve.com/writings.html 86 christian-sauve.com/search.html 83
Few changes this month. Movie material continues to be a top draw.
If you care about such things, (and who would not?), here’s a look at browser statistics for the month (by visitors, last month’s results in parentheses):
Netscape|6 2491 (2316) Explorer|6 1772 (1838) Gigabot|2 361 (523) Googlebot|2 307 (287) Explorer|5 292 (new)
Netscape|6 widens its lead over Explorer|6…

3. Ohh! Visitor comments!
February was a good month for reader reactions to my reviews. Rummaging through our mailbox, we see…
1. A reader from Ontario raves about my take on Wright’s The Golden Age Trilogy.
I have just read your review of John C. Wright’s Golden Age Trilogy. I glad I’m not the only one who liked this wonderful endevour. (…) Your review brought the trilogy back to me and I think it is one of the few books that I could read again. There are so many ideas there that I probably missed some the first time.
Enjoy your reviews in general.
2. Here’s a pseudonymous correspondent on my review of Charles Stross’ Accelerando.
Thanks for your review of Accelerando. You were right: it’s great. I see myself reading all of Stross soon.
3. On a more serious note, my pan of Gingrich & Forstchen’s infamous 1945 got noticed by one of the authors, who made a number of excellent points regarding the true authorship of the finished product. You can read about it as a post-scriptum to the review.
4. Search Queries Oddities
