MJH logged in the following day to also see a massive spike of interest in his You Tube account...

Tim Willie called it just about the perfect children’s song.

I wish I lived in Sweden May-September every year.

I found it interesting that there is the big surge mid-month that was greater even than the "final push" surge on the 29th. Anyway, nice work. Also, I can help out with the Spanish translation also next year (as well as any other way I might be of assistance), so keep me in mind. Very cool stats.

Next thing you'll think that they are capable of beating Denmark in soccer or something like that. What do you mean the statistics prove without a shadow of a doubt that Denmark has consistenly been the inferior team for almost 100 years? Shut up! This obsession with Sweden is really unhealthy.

My favorite parts of the data were the weekend dips in traffic. Nothing says "this mundane work existence doesn't deserve a musician like me" more than listening to fellow FAWMers during... uh, coffee breaks. That said, I love my job. I really do.

I don't have any explicit data on logged in vs. not-logged-in visitors for this year, though. Tim - That percentage doesn't tell the whole story, but recall I said fastest GROWING. It also turns out that Sweden is the 7th highest-traffic country (after the big four, France, and the Netherlands). However, I agree that as a target language it isn't as high a priority as, say, French and Spanish. (Most all you viking-types speak English, anyway.)

There are only 5 active Swedish FAWMers out of 9 total. No WAY should we translate the site into SWEDISH, man! NO FREAKIN' WAAAY!! (And this diatribe has absolutely NOTHING to do with the fact that I am Danish... *whistles* :-) ) I’m pretty sure that percentage for Swedish gives the wrong impression.
