familyfuninthekitchen म्हणाले...

congratulations. I think half of those page views are mine, though.

Chip S. म्हणाले...

What's the ratio of comments to visits?

Just wondering...

Kyle J म्हणाले...

Congrats!! I am super jealous!!

A. Shmendrik म्हणाले...

You're rich!

Jason म्हणाले...

Woohoo! This calls for a celebration! Boxed wine for everybody!

Ron म्हणाले...

who did it? who did it?

अनामित म्हणाले...

Do I get any award for the most comments involving women's, ahem, grooming?

Do I get an award for Greatest-Number-of-Comments-Being-Ignored?

Will someone please answer me?

Chip Ahoy म्हणाले...

Bloody hell, that's a lot of words being read.

You'd be right in letting it all go to your head. You know what this means, you're 4/5 the way to 50,000,000.

SukieTawdry म्हणाले...

Wow, congratulations and well done! Only thing you left out was your net take. Care to share (the info, I mean)?

David म्हणाले...

345,326 loaves pinched by Titus.

coketown म्हणाले...

It's very gracious of you not to make a bar graph comparing your visits to those of Lawyers, Guns, and Money.

I'd still get a kick to see it, though.

David म्हणाले...

Congratulations Althouse. You have flair and insight.

Admirable traits, though truth be told not all that rare.

Flair, insight and diligence? That puts you in another league.

Keep it up as long as you can stand it.

edutcher म्हणाले...

Many congrats.

I know the blog must be a lot of work and the last few months haven't been fun, but you have a place in the hearts of your readers few others can match.

You've allowed us to become a part of your life and we've become a part of each other's. Give yourself a well-deserved pat on the back.

Better yet, let your sweetie give it to you.

(I'm sure he'd enjoy it)

Chip S. म्हणाले...

At a certain point, you've gotten enough hits.

My Social Justice Calculator indicates that 50% of your visitors should be redirected to less-visited sites.

Unknown म्हणाले...

Just curious: when Glenn Reynolds links to you, do you get an instalanche, or does most of his readership routinely check our your blog anyway? His mention of your RBG post made me wonder.

अनामित म्हणाले...

WOW.
Congratulations- i'm looking forward to following you on the new site.

SteveR म्हणाले...

When Kerry lost you, I gained you.

Bill म्हणाले...

"Average Visit Length 3:15"

How are they figuring this? It's not like we have to log in and out to read the page...

g म्हणाले...

Don't forget: Blogger moderators despise success!

Chase म्हणाले...

CONGRATULATIONS

All while being true to yourself without compromise. Good job.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

"How are they figuring this? It's not like we have to log in and out to read the page..."

If you come in and don't go to any other page, it will get averaged at 0:00, which isn't actually true. When you click to another page, they get a data point, and that's how you get numbers other than 0:00.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

My visit length is as high as it is because people click into the comments and produce that extra data point that many blogs don't get.

If you multiply average number of visits per day times visit length, you will have a hard time finding any other blog with a higher number. There's a good chance I'm number 1 but that standard.

Ann Althouse म्हणाले...

by that standard.

PaulV म्हणाले...

ANN, your viewers are #1. You owe it all to us little people

Brad म्हणाले...

There's good news and bad news ....

The Good News is the blog is wildly successful.

The Bad News .... the anchor/archive all those visits & views have created are delaying your departure from Blogger ....

Seriously, though - congrats for being consistently interesting !!!!!!!

AllenS म्हणाले...

Put out a good product, consumers will show up. It's that simple.

caplight म्हणाले...

Congratulations to Ann and now Meade. It is a privilege to be a part of the Althouse Blog family, as dysfunctional, screwed up and weird as we are.

I'm Full of Soup म्हणाले...

Wow congrats! Btw- have you analyzed what the new domain will cost when you have 40,000 visitors per day and the average stay is 3 minutes? I am not a techie but that sounds like it could be a lot of bandwdth.

gail म्हणाले...

Edutcher @2:37 express my thoughts better than I could have...

Professor,thank you for your work

thank you to the commenters. I've been shocked, provoked, challenged. But I cherish the times I have laughed.

अनामित म्हणाले...

I didn't think there was math on this blog-

Are the numerous numbers a good thing?

damn, it's hot

अनामित म्हणाले...

Congrats, Prof. Your blog is more open and more welcoming than any of the elite media (SullyAndy, Daily Kos, TPM, Ezra J. Klein). Why is that? Why is your blog open but not theirs, even whey they are talking about open govt. This is a mystery. What do others think?

Fred4Pres म्हणाले...

Congratulations.

Carol_Herman म्हणाले...

If you then added in all the pages of student homework you had to read ... what list would stack into a greater pile?

Nobody ever gives teachers enough credit for all the heavy lifting they have to do ... sorting through student tests and answers.

We're just lucky you have effort left over to spare.

While off to the side, this was hosted by Google for free. (Blogger being Google, that is.)

It's wonderful what the Internet offers!

And, one reason for all the views ... is that people bought computers. And, connectivity happened when the technology zoomed.

People who haven't been here to see this have lost out.

Ah! And, that it's in English!

Let's not take it for granted that one language ... ours ... has circumferenced the world.

coketown म्हणाले...

I'll be honest. I came for the Instapundit link, I stayed for Titus, and I refresh constantly for Carol Herman. I <3 you Carol.

The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...

For all my criticisms, that's quite the accomplishment, and I wholeheartedly salute you - with no jealousy what-so-ever:

You do yourself proud, and I'm just really happy to be a part of it, however minor.

Congratulations, "bloggress" Ann Althouse.

Trooper York म्हणाले...

Hey congratulations.

It's no wonder so many bunnies visit your garden.

The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...

Hey, BTW - some of you millions of bastards need to get over here, too!

I know, I know:

"Crack, you really need to work on your delivery,..."

Randy-g म्हणाले...

Congrats young lady! a few of those visits were me...Heh.

somefeller म्हणाले...

Nice work. Too bad you're going to outsource the blog to the Swedes, but such is the nature of the global economy.

Elliott A म्हणाले...

Just curious, how many unique visitors, what percentage of those comment? Is this knowable? I believe I hold the record for the most comment streams ended, probably not what you need to get the next 40 million more quickly.

Thank you for your efforts.

Elliott Althouse

Lem the artificially intelligent म्हणाले...

I'm going to play devils advocate and not congratulate Althouse.

You are going to have to try harder professor ;)

Peter V. Bella म्हणाले...

Wonderful and congrats!!!!!

अनामित म्हणाले...

I offer my most sincere congratulations to Ann Althouse.

The success of her blog is no accident. She worked for it. She had a goal. Apparently, she achieved it...thus far.

I know I'm hard on Alhouse at times-but not Ann personally.

Althouse the law professor-

As she pushes back on her students and her readers to make them better, we too must push back on the professor to make her better when appropriate.

P.S.: can we have more Hippy Fridays?

Lincolntf म्हणाले...

Congratulations! Bet you never expected (though you maybe hoped) that you'd ever have such a large and broad fan base.

mariner म्हणाले...

Congratulations, Althouse!

traditionalguy म्हणाले...

Kudos Professor. You are the Bobby Jones of Blogging: a sweet swing, a good temperament and the only Grand Slam winner in Blogging history. Will you now start a Masters of Blogging invitational tournament. We do appreciate your fine writing and insightful mind.

Trooper York म्हणाले...

How is it that except for MadisonMan and somefeller none of the libs are here to say congratulations.

Com'on libs. Sharpen up!

Henry म्हणाले...

Congratulations! You've earned every one of those views.

Carol_Herman म्हणाले...

O! Ann! Add on the photography!

It's always such a surprise to see what you focus on with your camera's eye!

If we had a revolution. And, that revolution was TECHNOLOGY ... which is at the core, here ...

Then you made the most of it!

It's been such a pleasure!

Heck, you brought Madison onto the map!

You gave Justice Prosser a fair shot.

You saw Kloppenhoppen "trot."

You tapped into this technology like nobody's business!

Just WOW!

KCFleming म्हणाले...

Balleyhooooooooooo!

Fantasticorammalammmadingdonglicious!

Carpe datum!

m stone म्हणाले...

My congratulations to you as well!

G Joubert म्हणाले...

I wonder how your traffic compares to all the other blogs on blogger. I wouldn't be surprised if that didn't have something to do with why it has turned out so difficult to extract your archives. Maybe they really do not want you to leave.

Doug म्हणाले...

Nice - one of the best blogs in the blogosphere, richly deserving of its exalted place. Rational thought and commentary is quite widely enjoyed, it seems.

Unknown म्हणाले...

I rarely comment, but I've enjoyed reading your blog for the last several years, and I thank you for creating it. And I thank all the commenters for adding their particular flavors.

David Smith म्हणाले...

And here I thought I was special...

Congratulations...you've earned it!

Com'on libs. Sharpen up!

Al Gore won ;)

Proverbs 16:18

Guildofcannonballs म्हणाले...

mirabile dictu (adverb; lat.) "Wonder to relate"; incredible.

Here is a question for which, mirabile dictu, I don't have the answer. It is: How much freedom should a college student be given to write what he wishes?


William Frank Buckley Junior wrote the above, in his artistically advanced (because of the physical dimensions of the book at minimum) "cornucopia of wonderful words for the inquisitive word lover".

What I want to know is the law, specifically, when Buckley said "Your honor, how should I answer a question that stupid?" did he receive special consideration because he was WFB?

And, more pertinant and possibly important, how much can I quote Buckley, in order to advance conservatism, without having NRO sue me?

I want to start a website, called either "MOREBUCKLEY" or "WHATWOULDBUCKLEYDO" or something along those line. It is to be completely nonobjective, and in fact as hagiographic as my limited skills allow and the format will permit. Of course, this potentially involves lots of Buckley quotes, I.P. rights, and witticism information I haven't paid for, but simply want to expound on.

Guildofcannonballs म्हणाले...

Here they are:

Ann Coulter had reason to believe William F. Buckley behaved like scum, based on my intuition on some things of Ann I've read. It was with regards to a good man named Joe.

A consequetial and influential man, Joe was hurt immensely by WFB, and Annie C. saw it, from what I believe to be true based on a memory, loaded. Her obituary shows more wisdom than most symbols of wisdom.

James Rosen is the best columnist you haven't heard of, mainly because he is a TV reporter and not a columnist.

Here's why he should be a columnist more widely read:

Guildofcannonballs म्हणाले...

As both a fool and crazy, every single fiber in my being is urging me to simply again cut and paste the url to James Rosen's "Bill Buckley, Playboy, and the Stuggle for the Soul of America" via Real Clear Politics circa July 30th, 2008.

Harrington म्हणाले...

Congratulations professor! It was a great day when I stumbled onto you blog!

And I love those pictures.

ndspinelli म्हणाले...

Man..are there a lot of suck ups on this blog!

ken in tx म्हणाले...

Good on you!

Saint Croix म्हणाले...

What's remarkable to me is the perseverance. Day in, day out, every day. Like Cal Ripken, except more impressive.

I did a blog, briefly. I think I'm a manic-depressive blogger. Lots of posts for a week or so. Got out everything I wanted to say. And I was done.

You keep hitting it, over and over. It's very impressive.

Instapundit calls in pinch-hitters.
(Including Althouse).

Wonder Woman. All you need is a lasso that forces people to tell the truth. Which, come to think of it, you might have. Holy crap.
