Why would somebody with a Parliament.uk ip address be searching Google for this search string?
We can expect a forthcoming Guardian article on Afghanistan troop deployments to feature a Kipling poem.
And the 3 different BBC visits to pages referencing the Craig Murray documents have yet to result in the castrati mentioning the subject, but we wait with baited breath...
Can anybody reccomend a better Free stats counter, because I only get the last 100 visitors details, so the above only covers the last hour or two...
Speaking of stats, I've been
Speaking of stats, I've been wondering who it was from Tashkent who spent over half an hour reading one particular story on my blog.
yeah, you seen mint? Pretty

Pretty cool at tracking who, what and where
Maybe I'm a lousy searcher,
Maybe I'm a lousy searcher, but I only got hold of the Guardian article today with your link and that on craigmurray.
( I tried google early on , and the Guardian search. )
Vive le blogosphere.
dude - u sound like an MI5
dude - u sound like an MI5 spook trawling the server logs :)
if you run perl on your server try awstats - its free and the best stats package i've seen.
AW Stats... Don't like the
AW Stats...
Don't like the package, doesn't present information helpfully.
Sitemeter (www.sitemeter.com) sits nicely.
the free version is limited
the free version is limited to last 4000 visits. Also I had a look at the demo on the site - no way is it better presented.
anon - trawling the server
anon - trawling the server logs isn't something I do too often, I just wondered who was picking up the Craig Murray stuff...
Awstats looks great, unfortunately the one failing with our hosts, Servage.net, is the fact you don't get access to the logfiles, as it is some sort of distributed cluster server system...
Brennig - doesn't sitemeter have the same last 100 visitors restriction?
Thanks for the tips though.
Google analytics
Google analytics (www.google.com/analytics) - a free statistics service - invite only but I registered and got one in a few days - an absolute WEALTH of info available, almost too much.
re google analytics - stacks
re google analytics - stacks of info, but the code meant the page took an age to load, so I gave up, maybe should try again though...
I've been experimenting with
I've been experimenting with Google Analytics but there is so much stuff there that I tend to just look at one page. It does make the page take a little longer to load. Also it doesn't seem to be very instant.
google analytics will make
google analytics will make blairwatch even slower than it is already ;) I don't care much for this clustered server/no log files/down at weekends (occasionally) malachi.
£5.95 per month = u get wot u pays 4.
The only internet access
The only internet access from Tashkent, or any othe Uzbekistan location is through a single government server - strictly controlled in other words. That, together with the cowed state of opposition to the Karimov regime, makes it highly likely that it was someone you would rather not be involved with.
