The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2012 annual report for this blog.
Here’s an excerpt:
600 people reached the top of Mt. Everest in 2012. This blog got about 6,000 views in 2012. If every person who reached the top of Mt. Everest viewed this blog, it would have taken 10 years to get that many views.
Thanks for posting this, Amanda–some pretty surprising stats in here, such as the hits from over 100 countries! Some of the most popular postings seemed to come from links to calls for papers, so maybe the site is evolving to function partly as a clearinghouse?
