Googl Chrome Stats


I'm not seeing any real increase in visits from the Google Chrome browser.


But, I just noticed something else..... I was just out trying to check a new page that was added a few days ago, which had a link off of one of the dictionary pages. However the page did not contain the link to the new page. Checked the server and the server showed the page was just up-dated a few days ago. Hmm, I hit the 'reload this page button' and the link shows up, "Pulse Shape".

In Internet Explorer, for example, there is an option to 'Automatically' check for a newer version of the page, but I can not find that option in the Chrome Browser. Yea, we don't like that........

Web Site Birthday


I just realized that the web pages now located at interfacebus.com are ten years old this year. Now the current site was started in 2000 with the purchase of the current domain name, but it had lived out on another web address before that.


Figured I would list a few pages that were not doing so well, like the pages with the lest amount of page views:
Compliance Testing, looks like this page needs a little work.
Listing of Manufacturers, Vm. Has no page rank either
Listing of Manufacturers, J, Has no page rank.

Some of those pages are new, so low page hits make sense, but some are a bit older. Most did not seem to have a page rank, but if their new it's ok.

I used Google Analytics to determine low page hits, sorted by page views. Within the sorted list are hundreds of mis-spelled pages on the low end of the "pageview" scale, in a total list of 2,726 URLs. The site only has around 1,300 pages.

Browser Analytics


I took another look at how Google Chrome is doing on the web site, or with the web site. Seems the new browser is doing good. As the attached graphic shows, in the last several days Google Chrome has now reached 1.61% of the traffic. That's not so bad for just a few days, it's already at number five in the list. Click that graphic for a larger view...


Seems like by next week it will pass both Safari and Opera and place third on the list. If I remember I'll post again next month to show how the new Browser is doing....

Google Chrome Web Broswer


Just down loaded and started using Google Chrome and already found a bug. When I try to open my MS Office Live site, Microsoft sends me to a page saying I need to use either IE or Foirfox and it provides links to down load them? Hello, I'm using Chrome.... There's a screen shot just above, click to see a larger image.


Here is a link to down load the new broswer: http://www.google.com/chrome

Each of my sites seem to render ok, I don't see any issues.

Hmm, I just made another bug report. The pages do not always open from the top, but several inches down from the top. Clicking a link to go to a new page, the new page opens half way down its page.
Yet another bug, I think. I was out editing one of my Knol's and I noticed that there were no words underlined as misspelled. There should have been many terms 'high-lighted' as misspelled because of all the acronyms used [knol]. In fact, I see a misspelled word here that is not highlighted? Guess I will report this bug too.

A few hours later I noticed that the address bar is also used a the search bar. I came to that conculsion after not being able to find the search bar and just words typing into the address bar ~ and it worked. Now I see an artical in cnn that indicates the same thing. Google calls it the Omni Box

Decrease in Visits


This month interfacebus received the lowest visits for the year, with about 121,000 unique visitors. Just a little less then June of last year, but higher than June/July of 2006.

So visits are still flat over the last three years. Anything before 2006 is much lower than the last three years.

The web site serialphy is also stable over the last few months, but with only a few hundred hits a month. Serialphy is up over the first four months of the year.

[Text Removed 6-28-2010]

A new site was started over the last few weeks on Google Sites and is also called interfacebus, but with a different root address. This sites now has 12 total pages. A counter was just added yesterday so there is no data on site visits ~ other than a few showing today. A second site was also started, but only holds the sitemaps for the three other web sites; interfacebussitemap.

Google Sites is free......
