Compared to October, November results were slightly down.  It was a shorter month with a four day holiday weekend.<\/font><\/p>\n

The comparison with last November reveals that we have fewer unique visitors, but the ones we have are visiting more and reading more articles.  That’s a good thing, I think.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here is our <\/font>ClustrMap<\/a><\/font> for 2017 Year to Date.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"ClustrMap11-2017\"<\/font><\/p>\n

ClustrMap misses a lot of visits, because many visits can\u2019t be easily traced to a location.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top five articles:<\/font><\/p>\n

National Popular Vote for the Reich<\/a><\/font> 9\/29\/2017 2,654
<\/font>Jane Smiley: Capitalist Pigs<\/a><\/font> 1\/17\/2010 1,045
<\/font>Samantha Bee from 11\/8<\/a><\/font> 11\/9\/2017 641
<\/font>Open Thread \u2013 11\/12\/2017<\/a><\/font> 11\/12\/2017 414
<\/font>Personal Update \u2013 11\/26\/2017<\/a><\/font> 11\/26\/2017 405<\/font><\/p>\n

The count represents only the people who followed an external link to that specific article.  Three were from November.  Four were from this year.  All were from me.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top non-blog\/news referrers (100 referral minimum):<\/font><\/p>\n

Google<\/a><\/font> 2,182
<\/font>Care2<\/a><\/font>  1,808
<\/font>Stumbleupon<\/a><\/font> 290
<\/font>Facbook<\/a><\/font> 187
<\/font>Baidu<\/a><\/font> 102<\/font><\/p>\n

Google is down from October.   Care2 is down.  Stumbleupon is up. Facebook is up.  Baidu is down.<\/font><\/p>\n

Here are our top  blog\/news referrers:<\/font><\/p>\n

We had 7 sites  with 2 or more referrals, up 3 from October.  Putting blogs\u2019 links here increases the ratings of their sites, so this \u201clinkey love\u201d is our thank you for their referral support.  We need to improve this.<\/font><\/p>\n

As of midnight December 1, we had 7,823 articles and 94,215 comments.<\/font><\/p>\n

Congrats to SoINeedAName, aka Nameless, for posting the 94,000th comment.<\/font><\/p>\n

I recommend using your own avatar. Go to <\/font>Gravatar<\/a><\/font>.  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.<\/font><\/p>\n

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.<\/font><\/p>\n

This is our policy on links.  We do not embed links to extreme Republican websites, like Faux Noise, Breitfart <\/em>or World Nut Daily<\/em>.  However I leave notes in square brackets when I delete such links, (example: [faux noise delinked]<\/em>) 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.<\/font><\/p>\n

Thank you for all you do, everywhere you do it.<\/font><\/p>\n

We have huge fights ahead, especially since the Republican Tax SCAM just passed the Senate.  And we have lost one of our premiere guiding lights.  Keith Olbermann retired.  To honor him and hold him up as an example for us to follow, here is his very first resistance video, published on 11\/16\/2016.<\/font><\/p>\n
