Web hits statistics

As soon as you hear the word statistics, your eyelids probably start to droop. This blog is Blogger-powered so I don't know if Firestats will work on it but I have been playing around with it on another Blog and I have to say I am entranced.

Once you start, you can get obssessed with where blog visitors come from, using which browser on which operating system and - most fascoinating of all- what desent them to your site.

Google hits are amazing. People have typed in phrases that you didn't even know appeared in your blog posts. They have been directed to an obscure post from a year ago that you forgot yourself.
