On Google Analytics

I recently signed up for Google Analytics because I wanted to try and see the hit rates coming into my blog. I am just simply amazed at how technology can capture information that once was impossible to acquire.

Here's a map of London. Captured by Google Analytics on where my visitors come from.


The report highlights in darker orange hues that the cities are Kensington and Wallington. I'm assuming this is you Slick. :-P

Just one of those little pieces of information that amaze me daily.

but i'm in sutton! hahahah. i looked it up, and it's next to wallington. but kensington is like, the rich people place in the city. where we lived when we were in a hotel.

anyhow, that's cool. i realized me putting it in my own blog isn't of much use because i don't want to spread it. haha.

Hahaha! Well, at least it's close enough. Yeah true but don't you want to wonder about who visits it in the first place? Like what parts of the world they're from? It's kind of a surreal experience. :)

Whatever the case may be, I still think it's pretty cool that Google has this technology. :)
