Interesting stuff. Thanks for posting it. The Limbaugh graph is particularly notable. He gets a tremendous number of hits while he's on the radio (the "Dittocam" and all that), hence the regular spikes during the work week, but his hits plummit each weekend. And note the lack of the usual weekday spike in late December when he was on vacation and reruns and/or guest hosts were on the air.

Free Republic also seems to do better on weekdays than on weekends (though of course the trend isn't nearly as extreme as Rush's), which surprises me a little. Are we FReeping on company time at work? :-) Or is it just that weeknights have more news to react to than weekends?

Awesome banner :-) Blows my mind when I hear people talking about the mainstream media being biased in favor of CONSERVATIVES.... could you imagine how wonderful the US would be if that were true??

FR is throwing off them velcro straps!

[spodefly]

Proud to provide a few hundred hits a day and $50.00 / quarter to FR, the "stickiest" site on the web (to use the vernacular of the dot com bubble days.)

The only conclusion to be drawn from the stats on FreeRepublic's growth is that there are alot of SUV-driving, gun-owning, tax-paying, law-abiding, right-wing crazies out there in internet land.

Happy to be among FRiends.

The sharpness, clarity, logic, and humor at freerepublic.com really becomes evident when compared to bartcop or DU.

Ha ha ha. Yeah!

Notice how the peaks at Rushlimbaugh.com track with those at Freerepublic? It looks like a solar cycle plotted against warming/cooling trends.

Bartcop is a steaming turd...

Now, now, you don't want to 'mess up' our polite language here, do you?? LOL.

Wish we had a left wing "Daddy Whorebucks" like Salon has who'd will drop $200K at a pot to keep Joe Conason out of the steam baths.

Ever notice Joe Conson only writes for outlets that take "personal ads"?

Notice how the peaks at Rushlimbaugh.com track with those at Freerepublic? It looks like a solar cycle plotted against warming/cooling trends.

But these both are tracking against weekdays/weekends.

FYI! Great news.

Just posting a response can get FR a few more hits.

Cool!
