Random Stats From Last Week

My new portfolio seems to have sparked some interest.  Personally, I think it was the color palette.

Anyways, here are some stats for those interested in numbers and math and the probability of you hiring me at $15/hour, and other crap.

  • + Just over 130,000 hits to the portfolio
  • + Just over 1500 new followers on Twitter
  • + @keeg was the first person to Retweet it
  • + Within 2 hours of my posting it on Twitter, it had already received over 8,000 hits
  • + Of those 130,000, Reddit sent the most, 22,000 in a two hour time span
  • + 2 BIG companies came knocking (more on that later)
  • + Firefox and Safari made up 80% of the visitors
  • + Windows was 53% to 36% from Mac OS X
  • + Someone tried a dictionary attack (of sorts) on my site; and actually found a few other directories
  • + Over 1,000 links came in from other sites
  • + Peter Bowden didn’t believe that I made Jeremy Cowart’s blog to which Jeremy corrected him
  • + Most interesting Tweet came from Tom Whitwell of Time Online announcing me as his new CTO.

All in all, it was a wild ride.  I know I had fun, I just hope I put out enough to warrant a second date.
