Some stats from my 15 minutes of fame - Digg stats

So yesterday; I ended up on Digg. I have been reading digg for the past 4-5 months and I never thought I would get on their front page. I mean I kinda had that goal in mind when I started this blog. I think every geek would love to be featured on it. One of the nice things about being on digg is that I was also featured on the ‘popular’ page at del.icio.us. So all in all; it was a nice day for this site yesterday. :) Here are some stats…

Total number of visits was 4487. The avg daily visits before that was about 120-150. Today I got about 750 vistors. Lets see what the lasting effect of being on Digg is.. Total Visitors
The most popular browser was Firefox. Out of top 5 browsers used; 4 of them were some version of Firefox. Internet Explorer had a 15% share. I guess the Digg crowd is much more up to date with their browser selection than the general public; which is not a surprise. Popular Browsers
Windows was however the top operating system with 80% share. Linux came in next; above Mac OSX. That was not too surprising considering the topic of the post had to do with Linux. Top Platform
The next stat we are going to look at is the resolution. The top resolution was 1280×1024. It was closely followed by 1024×768; with 1600×1200 coming a distant third. 800×600 was not in the top 5 at all. The biggest resolution I found in the logs was: 3200×1200 (10 people). Monitor resolution
This one is just shown for good measure. It shows me featured on the home page of del.icio.us. I just had to take a screenshot of that. I know its pretty cheesy; but…. Delicious!

So there you go. That was how this site did yesterday, Thanks to Digg :)
