This week's visitors: when we broke the 25k barrier

Here's the update on the number of pageviews the blog has received from different parts of the world in the week just ending.

1. United Kingdom 406
2. United States 89
3. Slovenia 60
4. Russia 40
5. Germany 32
6. Denmark 21
7. Canada 14
8. India 10
9. Ukraine 10
10. France 8 

This week's total: 690 (last week's: 596) These are aggregates of figures from the top ten countries only. Blogger's stats software doesn't show me numbers of pageviews below the tenth-ranking country.

I'd love it if our reader(s) in Slovenia would drop us a line in the comments box. Tell us who you are, what you do etc. Thank you for your 60 pageviews, Slovenia (Uh oh: it's starting to sound a bit Eurovision now!)

The world map at the top of this post is the graphic that I see on the stats page. The darker the green, the more pageviews from that country. I can see different versions of this map for "now" (whenever that is), today, this week, this month and "all time" (which seems to mean the last 12 months). They're updated each time I look at that them.

This week the number of "all time" page views hit 25,000! I did refresh the page and it actually showed exactly that number (a feat that the Facebook team didn't quite manage when they were waiting for their one millionth sign up, according to The Social Network). I was hoping to hold on to that page and get a photo of it for archive purposes, but I wasn't paying attention sufficiently to do that right. Never mind: 50,000 can't be far away.
