I think the analytics does ‘sessions’ but IPv4’s get recycled enough to make it worthless (unless comparing a metric with itself). For the main www articles site people don’t log in, plus we don’t enable user tracking. Plus most sensible people run adblock or ublock or something so even for page view I think it under counts, and we don’t gather server-side stats on www.mudspike.com. I mean, it’s not going to improve our revenue.
Anyway, kind of getting off topic of the F-14, so here’s two dogs hugging.
