Archive for December, 2007photo by ChadBrooks on Flickr
Originally, I was shooting for a list of 100. I’ll experiment more with lists of 100 later, but for now, this is a good start. And no, I won’t just add to this list. If you want to donate anything to help me achieve any of these projects in 2008, please fell free by clicking the PayPal button below. Even a quarter would be great. Thanks, and have a great weekend. Yes, I realize blog references are excluded, so the list of 36 is incomplete. It was a brainstorm for cryin’ out loud.

Flickr recently announced the introduction of Stats for their Pro users. Pretty sweet.
To view them, when logged into your Pro Flickr account, go YOU –> YOUR STATS. Here you will see displayed the top ten photo views for the previous day, and of all time. A table displaying the photo thumbnails also displays how many views each photo received, how many times each was favorited and commented upon, and, my favorite feature, a breakdown of where your traffic originated.

The “Other Sites” are further broken down as shown below.

Lastly, There is a breakdown of all photos you have uploaded. I’ll let the screenshot do the talking here.

I activated mine a while ago, but haven’t had the chance to look at my stats until tonight. The results were interesting, though not too surprising considering the title (and subject) of the photo. (and not that good of a photo) named Hot Upskirt Bike Action has had the most views. It’s tagged with:
upskirt
tourdefat
missoula
montana
bike
newbelgium
When viewing the photo as I wrote this post, I realized that one can also view one’s stats about an individual photo only without having to navigate to the Stats page. There is a “Stats” link on the main page for the photo being viewed, located under the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION heading on the right, below the tags. The photo in question was taken at the annual New Belgium Tour de Fat, held in Missoula and other parts of the NorthWest. I wrote about the Tour de Fat shortly after it happened, and it was a lot of fun.
Right. Not that great of a photo, eh? But let’s have a look at the stats for this particular image. It has the most views of any image I’ve posted to Flickr, including full blown nudes.

Wow.
So, the lesson here is: name your photos (or other artwork) well. Lesson #2: sex sells, and you don’t need any nudity at all.
