Yeah, now that's what I'm talking about! MadMan is left in the dust.

OK kids, gather 'round. Looks like we've got a Zipf distribution. Yeehaaah!

I am also toying with producing stats looking at the relationship between number of items posted and how many comments are generated. As well as longest words used by webworders and the average lifespan of a comment set. And thanks to Anita for her comments about the Rogues Gallery. I think Eszter's picture is my favourite at the moment.

Jack, I had serious problems with my hardware over July, which is why I was lax. You can bet your candy arse you won't make it twice in a row. Ha!

Whuts da matter MadMan, yur Enter key done got broke?

Mac, can we get some changes to the Rogue's Galley?

For people without photos, adjust the silhouette in this manner:

1) Give Yahoo Mail users a propeller beanie.

2) Give .EDU users a mortar board.

3) Give Hotmail users a Borg head.

Ooh, and let us submit our own photos.

Excellent. User control of the Rogue's Gallery is an awesome idea. I second the motion.

I am happy to accept photos for the Gallery ( chris@firstcircle.co.uk ) I shall have a look at providing different default piccies, and if anyone wants to mail me some that would be great.

I will also accept some words for a bio page that I can publish in the gallery for people who do not have an existing web page.

And Jack, don't tell me you're going to start changing your name as well as your e-mail in every post ! Because John does not burden us with a registration system, my stats program has to work out who you are ......

Still, it is a challenge I suppose.

Programming with Humility and Humanity
