A year of Google blogging
30 dicembre 2005
Posted by Karen Wickre, Google Blog team
This is the 201st post to be published on the Google Blog in 2005. In closing out the first full year of our company-wide effort to share news and views, we thought you might be interested in a few factoids. Since we've had Google Analytics running on this blog since June, some of these numbers reflect only half a year. In that time, 4.3 million unique visitors have generated 8.7 million pageviews. Readers have come from all over the world, not just English-speaking countries: 53,001 visitors from Turkey have stopped by, for example; so have 155,691 from France, 29,614 from Thailand and 8,233 from Peru.
The most popular posts? Here are a few that have yielded scores of backlinks:
-
Our explanation of "Googlebombing"
-
A celebration of email and Gmail
-
Google Earth's partnership with National Geographic
about Africa
Several on Google Book Search (formerly known as Google Print), including:
-
Preserving public domain books
-
Our statement on the Authors' Guild suit
- and
Eric Schmidt's op-ed
about Book Search.
During the year, we've published 38 how-to tips, announced 77 new products and services, and addressed policy questions and legal matters 17 times. We've featured 11 guest bloggers. Forty posts have illuminated something about day to day life at Google; 19 have offered some international perspective.
In 2006, we'll keep up the Google Blog with more posts, more bloggers, and even more topics. Meanwhile, we really appreciate your interest and feedback, now visible through "Links to this post." We know some of you would like to offer comments directly, and we would like that too, when we can add resources to the blog crew. Meanwhile, our best to you and yours for the New Year.
