2012 in review
The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
4,329 films were submitted to the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. This blog had 25,000 views in 2012. If each view were a film, this blog would power 6 Film Festivals

Excuse my French but HOLY SHIT: The busiest day of the year was December 20th with 1,577 views.

Haha. Your French is very good sir 😉
That’s what I thought on the day. I couldn’t fucking believe it man. The views went through the roof that day. It normally takes me about four or five weeks (at least) to achieve that number. I’m storing up some stuff for next year man and I’m aiming to really drive the stats up now that I know I can. 🙂

Indeed Mark, the comments are what makes the blog goes around. Hope to ‘chat’ more with you in the coming year. I’m sure we’ll have tons to talk about when I post my open letter to GB 😉

I’ve been taking a bit of break from blogging recently Ruth but I’m just recharging the batteries a little and I’ll be back as usual very soon. I’ll also have a new feature coming up as well. I starting to get a little worried that I was burning out so a break was required. An open letter to Gerry you say? Haha! Nice one. 🙂

Thank you sir. Stats don’t really mean a hell of a lot to me but that 20th Dec really took me by surprise. I have no idea what I done different but it went through the roof. That the type of traffic I’m aiming for this coming year.

Thank you very much Chris. Those are kind words indeed. In all honesty, stats don’t bother me too much, I’m more happy with the little community that has been built, of which, you have been a big part. Thanks again man.
