I’m going to try something new, and highlight popular content judged by number of views, in a summary post each weekend. If this isn’t useful, let me know by commenting. I’m using the WordPress.com stats plugin to determine what is popular. I really like it so far mainly because I think it may provide me with the most accurate and reliable accounting of traffic of any tracking service I’ve used thus far.

One other thing: I’ve decided to restrict the definition of what’s popular to posts, not pages. For instance, my photos page as well as the archives page held the #1 and #3 spots in terms of popularity this past week, but I made an arbitrary decision to not count them here.

During the past week, these were the top posts.

1. A trip to Volo Bog
2. Upcoming book on e-resource management in libraries
3. My version of “Lots of links to David”
4. Having computers understand what humans write
5. UKSG 2008 underway
6. Followup to UKSG blog plug
7. Getting value out of conference attendance
8. Some cataloging history
9. Tragedy at Taylor University
10. Sometimes He calms the storm
