blogpop update

Once again, I’ve updated blogpop, but with a couple of improvements, one major and one not so. Firstly, Mo wrote a script that retrieves all the pertinent information concerning UK blogs from the Alexa database, meaning that I’m far more less likely to make mistakes, and secondly, traffic trends are followed, demonstrating in many cases that while sites might slip in the overall listing, they’re still attracting more traffic than previously. It’ll make sense when you see it, I hope. Anyway, I’m very pleased to say that we have four new entries:

Now that I’m pretty happy with the way the chart is being compiled, I’ll let it sit a while and then probably update it once per month.

[update]: Bugger. I knew I’d screw up somewhere, and omitting Disconnected Zeitgeist was where it happened. Tune in for more mistakes next month…

  1. Any idea why my site isn’t showing up? I’d expect it to be in there somewhere, given that it’s all automated…

  2. You should be at number 13… while the information is collected automatically, I’m still compiling it manually, where is where the inevitable errors come in. Many apologies, and I’ll add you shortly…
