Book Review: Advanced Web Metrics with Google Analytics – Brian Clifton

Posted in Technology at 10:31 am by The Editor

I’ve used WebTrends for some time. Used a very early version of Urchin circa 2005. Started with Google Analytics in 2008. Google Analytics has come a long way since Urchin. WebTrends is definitely more potent with a lot more features. But well .. you’re paying for it. Google Analytics is free. The only shortfall is that it retains data for the last 25 months, so if you want to compare with the last 4-5 years, that will be difficult. You could pull out data to your local system and workaround this or use Urchin which has a more diluted reporting capability. Read more »

Why the Global stock meltdown makes me happy?

Posted in Current Affairs, Humour at 1:12 am by The Editor

Before the readers reach out to pelt stones at my phantom, I would make four reasonable statements:

1. I am not a sadist who feels happy that the millions of dollars which people invested in the stock market have vanished into thin air. But I do strongly believe that the millions that we think that the markets have lost were never there in the first place! I always feel happy if what is an illogical phenomena comes to a logical end. To me the ever upward movement of stocks was illogical and bizarre and hence its abrupt end makes me happy. Read more »

The Aristocrats

Posted in Education, Humour at 1:09 am by The Editor

5:20 pm
I stared at the screen of my cell phone as I walked into the empty tuition classroom and placed my bag at the seat I usually occupied- third bench from the back, right in the row next to the window. I’d come early again to claim that seat- sought after by many like me. Let me introduce you to the aristocracy prevalent inside the IITJEE classroom. It originated from the merit list pinned on the notice board.. an article I had learnt to treat with obstinate indifference for more than half a year. Read more »
