6000ish

As I noted over there, (though it got swallowed up in the RSS feed), my WIST quotations database rolled past 6,000 entries in the past week or so. Which, for something that started with a few hundred quotes, tops, scribbled in a Tolkien journal in college, is pretty remarkable. To me, at least.

Cool!

Do you track which quotes get browsed the most? I want a top ten list.

Not sure how deep down I can drill into the Google analytic data. The numbers aren't huge -- I get 25-30 hits a day, so the statistical universe is pretty small to choose from. Alas.

So within those limited numbers, the most visited is the top page, followed by the author-letter lists (all the M authors, all the B authors, etc.).
