An experiment

I have this blog set up with SiteMeter and Google Analytics, but part of me wonders how accurate they are.  I’m not that worried about stats, but I’m curious as to how many people read this little collection of thoughts.

So what I’d like to do is ask a favor of all of you.  If you don’t mind, please leave a quick comment to this post. Nothing too involved; just something to tell me you’ve been here.  You can identify yourself or do it anonymously.  I’ll compare the number of comments to what Analytics and SiteMeter say, and see what we can see.

Thanks!

    Read it RSS, Its actually nice that somebody actually writes something that is sometimes comical but mostly intuitive. You and SayUncle are my among my favorites.

    Remember that neither Sitemeter nor Google Analytics keep accurate track of those reading a blog through its RSS feed. You'll need to activate something like Google Feedburner to monitor that usage. I was startled when I did so: I found I was getting almost as many page views via RSS feed as I was through normal access to my blog.
