Compared to June, results are mixed.  Visits and Bandwidth are up.  Uniques, Page Views, and Hits are down.  It could still be a lot worse, given all my medical mayhem last month.

Here is our latest summary:

Here is our ClustrMap for 2017 Year to Date.

ClustrMap misses a lot of visits, because many visits can’t be easily traced to a location..

Here are our top five articles:

Friday Fun: For Chris Christie, Life Can Be a “Beach” 7/7/2017 854
Obstruction of Justice 6/21/2017 730
And the Word of the Lord Came to Limbaugh 4/18/2010 724
Occupy Portland had the runs 10/11/2011 722
|Jane Smiley: Capitalist Pigs 1/17/2010 532

The count represents only the people who followed an external link to that specific article.  Three were from April.  Congrats to Nameless, who  wrote not only the top article, but also, the only article from July to make the list.

We had 7 sites  with 2 or more referrals, down 3 from June.  Putting blogs’ links here increases the ratings of their sites, so this “linkey love” is our thank you for their referral support.

As of midnight August 1, we had 7,546 articles and 91,021 comments.

Congrats to SoINeedAName (Nameless) for posting the 91,000th comment.

I recommend using your own avatar. Go to Gravatar.  Sign up using the email address you use to post comments here and upload the image you want to use as your avatar.  Whenever you comment under that email address here or on any WordPress blog (several others too), that image will become your avatar.

Your Administrators are Lynn Squance, aka Sasquatch or Squatch, SoINeedAName, aka Nameless, and I, aka TomCat, the Founder.  Your Editors are Joanne Dixon, aka JD the Erynator and Lona Goudswaard, aka Lona the Napster.  I  promoted them from Author in August to give them the ability to add graphics to comments and the ability to correct my innumerable typos.

This is our policy on links.  We do not embed links to extreme Republican websites, like Faux Noise, Breitfart or World Nut Daily.  However I leave notes in square brackets when I delete such links, (example: [faux noise delinked]) so readers, who wish to follow them can click through to the source article.  I also remove topical links.  Finally, I blank the target on all links, so they open in a new tab or window. 

I expect things to stay relatively slow through the summer as I will be devoting a lot of time to medical mayhem.   We have survived seven months of Putin’s Puppet and his Republican Reich.  During that time he has failed almost across the board.  That’s your fault.  Your efforts to educate others and expose his treacherous dealings to the light of day have frustrated him at every turn.  Kudos to you all!  And special kudos to you for saving the ACA from a Republican onslaught that almost succeeded! Keep up the fantastic work!  Thank you for all that you do, here and elsewhere!

This is our second Monthly Report for 2017.  There was no Report for May, because I had to go to the hospital for Pancreatitis, but the stats are mixed.  It could certainly be a lot worse, given all my medical mayhem this year

Thank you for all that you do, here and elsewhere.  You and other activists are America’s only hope.
