A small milestone

In fact, I shouldn't call it a milestone. I should call it an inch-pebble. In the grand scheme of things, my inch-pebble is minuscule. Even within the smaller circle of science blogs it's pretty damn small, but it's my inch-pebble.

I received an e-mail from Sitemeter today reporting the cumulative visits and page views Uncommon Ground has received since I joined. Here's what it said:

            -- Site Summary ---                     
Visits

Total ....................... 10,051
Average per Day ................. 38
Average Visit Length .......... 1:17
This Week ...................... 266

Page Views

Total ....................... 13,985
Average per Day ................. 57
Average per Vit sit .............. 1.5
This Week ...................... 400

Passing 10,000 visits isn't much, but it is an inch-pebble I thought it was worth pointing out.
