Wired News: Website Analysis Isn't a Game
by Decius at 1:58 pm EDT, Jun 9, 2004

] VisitorVille employs a graphical, urban metaphor to
] present information about customers' real-time
] Web-traffic flow. A company's entire Web presence is seen
] as an urban or suburban neighborhood, with each
] individual Web page presented as a building. The more
] visitors on a site, the taller the buildings, and the
] brighter the lights on each floor.
]
] Continuing the metaphor, visitors who have found a site
] using popular search engines arrive in the "city" on
] virtual buses emblazoned with their logos.

This is neat. Really neat. Worth looking at. Unfortunately it works by using a web-bug. Their website is slow. Really slow. I don't want to tie the performance of my site to theirs. I don't want their server holding complete logs for my website. I also don't want to pay bling bucks host their software. Nor do I want to put their bug into all of my pages. You'd think they could handle Apache logs. Apache has something like 60% of the market.
