The 100th One!!

Hi,
Remember me??? I met you 6 months ago on my first birthday... Ya I am this blog...
Today, I have come to celebrate another milestone - I have gained huge amount of weight specially in the last 6 months.
It was 50 on my birthday in September. Now its 100.. Not completely hundred though.. it was 99 some seconds back.. but as I eat up these words, it is slowly being turned to 100..
So what is the special treat I am giving you this time around??
Considering my owner Sid, may have to deal with lots of numbers and graphs in near future, so he has asked me to have a stats treat this time. This is some info about myself which I have collected going through my personal diary of last 1.5 years. Also I took some help from my friend Google Analytics (I befriended him around 6 months back.) I would like to say a special thanks to my friend Microsoft Excel (This MS Excel and Google Analytics are not on good terms with each other but I managed help from both of them as it was a special day for me). So not wasting more time.. here are some statosas (I can't eat samosas you know!!)

Month Wise Distribution of Blogs



Top 5 Categories of Posts


(Poetry=10, College=8, Travel=8, Cricket=7, Tags=6)


Top 5 Cities from which Hits have been received


(Bangalore=574, Bombay=221, Durham=166, Madras=103, Chicago=56)

• Highest Number of Posts in a month (since Sept'05): 14 (in Aug'06)
  Lowest Number of Posts in a month since Sept'05): 1 (in Sept'05 and March'06)
  Average Posts per Month: 5.56
  
  Number of Posts in 12th month = 14 and Number of Posts in March'07 = 10.
  Hence, whenever a milestone (Birthday + 50 posts and 100 Posts respectively) is nearing the Number of Posts in that month see a considerable surge.
  



• Total Number of Comments Till Date on 99 Blogs: 694.
  Highest for any Single Post: 28
  Lowest for any Single Post: 0
  Assuming that this post manages 6 more comments that would make the average 7 CPP (Comments Per Post)



• Number of Page Views (since Sept, 2006): 3562
  Number of Visits (since Sept, 2006): 2341
  Average Page Views/ Visit: 1.52 P/V
  
  Highest Number of Page Views in a Single Day: 89
  



• Wanted to see the average number of Words Per Post but its 3 AM now plus there are 100 posts... Not feasible...

There are many more like Visitor Loyalty, Depth of Visit, Duration of Visit etc etc available on analytics but I would stop here..

I would like to Thank all my Readers for coming here, reading me, appreciating me, giving me gifts(comments) both offline and online and encouraging my owner to write more.. Hope to continue having your company as I grow older and heavier ;)

Thanks,
Regards,
The Blog

Happy Birthday to me!!!

Hi all… Today is my 1st birthday…thank you.. thank you.. for all your wishes on this milestone…
Ohh.. forgot to tell you.. with the space I am eating up with these words that you are reading, my weight will be 50 blogs…u guessed it correct - In my world, weight is measured in units different from all you humans…
On this happy occasion I will let you know of my life in the past 1 year… This guy Sid.. gave me birth on Sept 16, 2005. (technology has really excelled… guys can also give births now)..Sid told me that after he first saw my clone, which were his friend khushal and Bharath’s babies and thrn got ideas to conceive me….Like you humans have 2 eyes and ears..i also have 2 parts – one of us is remains concerned to sidz life. The second part he watches a lot of TV, specially news, reads newspapers etc. u know the ‘I need to have a view point on everything’ kinds…
I put my first blogss (ok. Kgs in ur language) with some words about a trip sid had gone with bharath…. Then followed some imaginable stories.. his tryst with bungee jumping… talk about his college days. (he is really obsessed with his college days and friends.!!! ). He also bored me with his philosophy.. and I traveled with him to his home.. it was a long 40 hour trip and I gained a lot of weight during that journey… also learnt some poetry (didn’t understand much though).. and enjoyed a lot when I was painted green, yellow and red during last holi…sid made me privy to some of his insanity..and also incidents at office.. I was witness to some mesmerizing spectacles at places like Chamundi Hills near mysore and Sukhna Lake at Chandigarh …Though the best one, according to sid and some of his friends was about the famous and inspiring words Inquilab Zindabad

My second part, as I already told, watches a lot of TV and is quite different from the 1st.. It is more concerned about cricket, quotas, movies , politicians and things like that…
Many of Sidz friends visit me often… specially when I eat and gain weight… Amrut, KT and Rompy have been visiting right from my birth.. They say lovely things about me and give me gifts. In my world they are called Comments… … recently birds like eagles and cuckoos have also been visiting me…one tied 2 lovely tags around me…they tickled me and I laughed a lot …there are many others who meet me but they don’t give me gifts .. while some don’t tell their names while giving gifts…
This has been pretty much my life till now.. Life which I am living in a small corner of a big big world called internet. But I like my space – decorated in plain blues, whites and shades of grey... I first thought of asking sid to give me a new dress on my birthday but then I changed my mind as I love the way I am presently..
Ohh.. I have eaten up quite a bit of space.. this is one thing I am concerned about.. Sid, when he nurtures me, tends to stuff me with lot of words.. I am going to ask him to let my weight increase but also at the same time keep me fit and in shape…
Hope I have a fitter, healthier and better second year with new experiences and thoughts to share.. Hope to have your company along…
Biii and take care…
