Once again the web statistics for this blog come under my scrutiny and once again my traffic sources below for those other bloggers who want to know where they come in this list.The famous quote “lies damned lies and statistics” always comes to mind when I do this, especially because of the strange quirks, like the 6 readers that came from here to here.
Once again my apologies that I can’t make all of my statistics publicly available all of the time as they are very detailed and show trends in internet use.
One thought that comes to mind is that more people are using internet explorer 7 than 8 still, a couple of things I should point out here, the first being that using an old version of internet explorer puts you at risk from a security point of view. I would urge all of you to download the latest version and keep it up to date by doing the security updates regularly. The other thing is that a lot of websites including older versions of blogger and TDCs don’t run properly in internet explorer 8 unless you run it in compatibility mode, to do this click on the tools dropdown, top right of internet explorer and tick “display all websites in compatibility view” on the compatibility view settings.
To put this in perspective about 100 people a day visit this website with out of date browsers, all of whom are putting their security at risk to hackers every time they enter a password or their personal details on any website.
All you need to do is go to http://www.microsoft.com/ and do your updates it doesn’t cost anything.
Below the statistics for those of you that are interested.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
