50,000 Page Views.
We’re pleased to announce that yesterday this site reached 50,000 page views since its founding in May 2010. When setting goals for 2011, we set that target as a goal, so it’s gratifying to achieve it. To be sure, this number is a small fraction of the hits for big web sites, but this is a part-time site that has grown without much promotion. Thanks for reading.
