Actually, given the context of the post in which it was used, it 
probably stands for Pocket PC, PDAs like the HP iPaq. I just help my 
son in law choose one of these, and while I love my Palm, I must 
admit to gadget envy...

[videoblogging] Re: Stat Counters and conflicting reports

2005-07-24 Thread Peter Paddon




Different counters calculate their number in different ways. Some 
will count every hit on a page, so if Joe visits your sight, and 
keeps coming back to a particular page, the counter will increment 
every time.

Another type of counter will calculate every visit. Underthe same 
scenario, Joe's visit above would only increment the counter once, 
but if he came back later in the day, that would move the counter up 
again.

Yet another type of counter only includes unique visits for a day, 
so Joe's second visit to your site wouldn't increase the count, but 
his visit the next day (he must really like your site) would be 
counted.

They all have their uses, depending on whether your aim is to gather 
accurate marketing data, imress your visitors, or just see if it is 
worth maintaining the site. You could use all three and they would 
be wildly different, and yet all totally accurate.

Hope that helps.

Peter

 Hey Josh,
 I don't know why that happens but I have noticed it also. From 
what 
 I've seen they're only good for pointing to a general trend - 
visits 
 are going up or visits are going down kind of thing.

  different... Stat counter shows a massive amount more traffic

Hey Deirdré, thanks for the input

 Let's make sure the newbies don't get confused: RSS does not solve 
the
 big problem of bandwidth.

I'm familiar with RSS from my research into podcasting audio... my 
take is that bandwidth can be at least mitigated if everyone 
exercises common sense regarding compression - but common sense 
isn't that common...

 What it does is syndicate your content
 such that lots of feedreaders (web-based or standalone) can
 subscribe to it and show your loyal readers the latest from you 
as
 soon as you publish it. 

That is the part that interests me.

 So it's a great way to increase and maintain
 your audience. The more that happens, however, the more you'll 
have to
 deal with the question of how to afford the bandwidth.

I have a decent bandwidth allowance on my server, so hopefully my 
obscure little experiments won't eat into it too much.

 
  im not sure if Flash files show up in RSS feeds...il let ithers 
chime in here.
 
 They do, you just have to code them right. Feel free to copy my 
feed
 at http://www.straughan.com/feeds/rss.xml for examples; several 
people
 on this list were instrumental in helping me get this to work.

I was planning on using WMVs - the Flash is just how I display video 
at the moment - but it is useful to know that Flash can be used with 
RSS too. Thanks!

 Hi, my name is Peter Paddon

I almost forgot... I don't think it qualifies exactly as a video blog, 
but it is the closest I have right now. Here is a link to my page of
