The Following results occurred at Greenwich Roundup:

Under Visitors > Network Properties > Network Locations

1. Optimum Online (Cablevision Systems)

2. Verizon Internet Services Inc.

5. Bell South Net Inc.

The most interesting Network Location though was Betterridge Jewelers

Terry Betteridge or one of his employees spent 31 and a half minutes visiting 45 pages at Greenwich Roundup a few days back.

I just love this Google Analytics software.

It's so cool.

It tells you each visitors connection speed, what browser they use, what operating system they use, what version of flash they have installed, java support, language used, host names, etc.

With the IP address it's very easy to see when a certain computer is visiting Greenwich Roundup.

It is amazing how specific the search terms are from the Search engines.

But the really interesting is looking at the number of clicks registered on the keywords or labels in the left hand column on December 27th the day I was going to call Sam Romeo and complain about the management of the Greenwich Police Department in General and the 4 to 11 Byram coverage specifically.
