Which is just as pointless, as the majority of the activity on the site is from RSS aggregators. I need to chat with Tee and Chris about revealing additional numbers. I'm 100% for full disclosure and transparency, but there are lies, damn lies and statistics in this world. When I put out "numbers" (no, the chart above does not count) about subscribers, I want to make sure it's defensible and not open to interpretation. Give us some time to have confidence in the numbers, and we'll put them out, OK CP? Your comments, as always, are most appreciated. E. Little growing red lines as in little growing red lines! :)
