People DO know. No, they won’t say. Why should they give away trade secrets?

Every real web site has a log of who, what, where, what time, what they did, how long they stayed, what pages they looked at, etc etc for every single person who comes to the site. I know, i have one.

I’m sure anyone who works for this webpage could find that out pretty easily. ( Paging all moderators, administrators, etc. . . ) The real question, as far as I’m concerned, is: how many hits a day does the Small Wonder homepage get? Someone speaking for it claimed that it got _ **eight times** _ the number of hits the SD homepage gets, which I simply refuse to believe. It just can’t be true. It _must not_ be! If it is, then what hope can there be for Cecil’s continuing crusade? I really want to see this proven wrong.

They misquoted.  
They’ve got eight times the hits they’ve used to since that Small Wonder thread got started.

So which seven of you _had_ to go see that site?

Sterling: THANK YOU!! I’m so relieved.

Still, that does mean that we at the SDMB have done the world a terrible disservice ( sp? ) by bringing this into the limelight. . . Oh, rats. Now I’m all depressed again. ☹
