The stats helper monkeys at WordPress.com mulled over how this blog did in 2010, and here’s a high level summary of its overall blog health [they generated it, I added a few comments further below]:
The Blog-Health-o-Meter™ reads This blog is on fire!.
Crunchy numbers

This blog is nearing its 5 year existence in April 2011, so I will refrain from reflections for the moment. Since it seems to be going quite well with the blog–well, relatively for a “dull sci/tech” blog, as some would categorise it–I have not made any particular new year’s resolutions for it other than continuing with what I was doing already anyway. On the very short term, I probably will not post much these weeks because I will be moving to South Africa and start with a new job at the University of KwaZulu-Natal.
Best wishes for the new year to all my dear readers and [on-/off-]line commenters!
