Comments on: Science Blogs Takes Over Intertubes. https://gregladen.com/blog/2010/04/06/science-blogs-takes-over-inter/ Thu, 08 Apr 2010 18:20:20 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.8 By: Marion Delgado https://gregladen.com/blog/2010/04/06/science-blogs-takes-over-inter/#comment-516858 Thu, 08 Apr 2010 18:20:20 +0000 http://scienceblogs.com/gregladen/2010/04/06/science-blogs-takes-over-inter/#comment-516858 I am for real impressed with Greg Laden’s Blog’s readers, though, because no one simply blurted out the kneejerk “It has inadquate metadata” response. I mean, it does have inadequate metadata, but who isn’t sick of seeing that?

I demand the raw data of everything on Scienceblogs, and all your computer code, and I want it now!

I also will file a FOIA request that “Dr.” Laden explain to me how the software works.

That chart is a trick to hide the decline in scienceblog hits.

They don’t tell us their plans, and we don’t own any shares.

I thought the Y axis was Gazillions.

An IPO, perhaps? How many shares will the bloggers receive?

(the 2 million unique visitors at the bottom gives calibration for the y-axis, and the title gives calibration for the x-axis with each tick being a month).

However, the line rises, so it looks good. Congratulations to ScienceBlogs!

What’s the y-axis? I assume visits.

So there has been less than 10 visits at any given time over an unspecified range of time.
