I’m taking off work this week, and my plan is to make something of it, so hopefully I’ll have some fresh new content to post up. Ideas I’m currently juggling around are: writing a tutorial, writing a facebook game (I bash facebook sometimes, but it is something almost everyone uses), or making a new online app. Or possibly re-doing my color fader. I really don’t like its interface. But I’ll figure all this out later. In the mean time, here are some random bits of news…<\/p>\n

I stumbled upon an interesting internet tracking site called QuantCast. According to its website its “the only open internet ratings service. We provide advertisers with audience profiles for millions of websites and services.” I’m not sure how it tracks websites, and I have never seen this site before today, but I discovered that it had data for my website, you can see it here:<\/p>\n
http:\/\/www.quantcast.com\/patorjk.com<\/a><\/p>\n According to the data they provide, this site gets more female visitors than male visitors. Interesting, interesting… hey ladies… j\/k, actually, this is all kind of funny because I really doubt that, unless the majority of people who view TAAG<\/a> are female. Though then again, maybe I just don’t know my audience very well. <\/p>\n The website also says “The site is popular among a 60-100k HH income bracket, more educated audience.” Which I thought was interesting.<\/p>\n As a side note to all of this, way back in the day I had a poll up on my main page that asked the viewer if they were male or female. The results came back 90% male, 10% female (I forget how many votes were cast, but it was a decent amount). So it’d be really interesting if the scales had tipped as much as that site says they have.<\/p>\n Google Trends<\/p>\n If you don’t know about Google Trends, you need to visit this site now:<\/p>\n http:\/\/www.google.com\/trends<\/a><\/p>\n It’s amazing how much fun that tool is. I can’t believe digg is more popular than reddit, fark and slashdot put together. I was also shocked to learn that Pepsi was more popular than Coke (in terms of google searches). This site<\/a> [NSFW!] has some more risque suggestions. But anyway, if you’re bored, it’s a fun tool to play around with.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’m taking off work this week, and my plan is to make something of it, so hopefully I’ll have some fresh new content to post up.
