Just curious--anyone got an idea how many posts we've been averaging per day or per week on the old board? I couldn't venture an accurate guess but I'd have to think it's in the range of several hundred per day, and 4 figures weekly.

I assume "pageviews" means the number of times people access the site (regardless of whether they actually post) on a given day.

Yep. In internet-ese, pageviews translates to how many times any page was loaded from our site, also known as "hits." "Unique IP"  (or unique users) translates to how many different people generated those hits.

Btw, if I were to read posts at work, and then check back later at home, I would likely be counted at two unique users, as I would have two separate IP addresses. So just because we had 27 unique IP's on a given day doesn't necessarily equate to 27 different people.  Still, if each of us checked in from two separte IP's it shouldn't add up to 27, I don't think, so there's gotta be a few people out there lurking who aren't speaking up much, or at all.
Let's get right to it.

well, you can see from the front page that in the two days we've been testing, we've generated 240 posts.

I talked to my guy, and it looks like unless we do some really massive posting, or major other features, the $50/year package will be fine.

Nice pic. Is that from the calendar signing?
