Lots of useless info- but still fun!

I love to know things. My husband like to manipulate this sometimes to say that I'm nosey- but I just really like to know about all kinds of stuff. I love figuring things out, and I love sharing what I learn with others. (Hence the occupation) Well let me share: yesterday I discovered Google Ana.lytics- an information junkie's dream!

Let me just say: It is frompin' fantastic. In just two days- I know that my blog has had 44 visits and 63 views. I know a general location where the visitors came from. Today I saw that two visitors were from the United Kingdom and Taiwan, and not just scattered cities around the US. (How cool is that?) It says how you got to my blog (from a link or direct). It even tells me an average of how long most people are on my blog. It tells who is a returning visitor and who stopped by for the first time.

With the crap that is IF, you have to look for a little happy in every day to help lift you up. And since I gave up all sources of caffeine and alcohol in preparation for our IVF- I needed to look for new ways to find my daily serving of happy. Some days finding the little bit of happy is harder than others. Today, Google Ana.lytics is my little bit of happy, and I thought I'd share. :)

No worries- there's no way I could tell who anyone is. All I know is useless information about nameless people from a general location somewhere in the world. Stalk away! :)

I love analytics! I use it on my wedding invitation site and I love the loads of information it gives you. I could spend hours on there! It gets addicting!

Happy ICLW to you!!! My H was just diagnosed with 1% morph and 35% motility. We were going to start our first cycle of IUI's in June.
Just thought I'd let you know there are some great success stories out there with MFI!!
Good Luck in the up coming cycle!!!
