Comments on: 1000th News Story! and PC Expo

According to the auto-incrementing database counter this is our 1000^th news story. To mark the occasion I thought it would be nice to go over the history of the site and it's current status. Before I go into that, I wanted to mention that I will be attending the PC Expo on Wednesday. If anyone would like to put a face with the site or just chat at the Expo feel free to drop me a line. If OmniSky works inside of Jatvis, you can mail me on the show floor. I'll probably spend most of my time around the various Palm exhibits (handhelds are supposed to steal the show, you know).

 Congrats

1000 stories?! And I've only done, what?, 3 of them? I gotta catch up. Seriously, here's the twenty I owe you for mentioning my name (give it back at PC Expo!). Ha! mc

 25,000 per day?

I don't think so. According to hitbox.com it's actually about 3000. Say about another that many off avantgo and that still doesn't make 25,000.

Other than that little exageration keep up the great work. This is the only palm site I visit daily.

 RE: 25,000 per day? yes at minimum

Paul,
Thanks for the positive comments. However I don't understand where you are coming from by calling 25,000 an exaggeration. I check my hitbox stats almost everyday and I run a log file analysis each month. 25,000 page views a day is what I get at minimum. Hitbox doesn't get everything on the site and I don't know where you're getting that number.

My mistake, I thought you were talking unique visitors. Anyways it's a great site you have.
