One year ago in October 2010 I began the Library Graphic Design blog to show friends and family a little about what I do as a designer. Since then, I've posted, received comments, and gained a couple of followers.

PAGE VIEWS BY OPERATING SYSTEMS:
With something as specific as LIBRARY graphic design, I never tried to fool myself into thinking there would be much of a readership, so working toward acquiring a big audience was never part of the incentive or goal when I began. Nevertheless, Blogger.com provides blog owners readership statistics, and it can be interesting to see the trends of what people are looking looking for, at, and what kind of equipment they are using to see it with. So in the spirit of record keeping--and perhaps more importantly, trivial pursuit--I thought I'd share with you some of the interesting stats I've built up after one year of blogging.
