    Big brother is watching ......

    So, I have a new computer at work and I need to get all my important links up and running (BT3Central being one), but forgetting the exact URL, I did a Google search. Here is one hit on Google:

    http://www.quantcast.com/bt3central.com#summary

    Interesting, but a bit disturbing ....

    I think they're just making a best guess. Male/female ratio, for one, is way off.

    Unless lots of you guys are actually gals trying to conceal tool fetishes.

    In which case, where have you been all my life?

        I'm also pretty sure that 16% of us are not 3-11 years old. Their statistics are questionable.

              Sounds bogus to me. How can you have more people visit than total visits. Are some of you guys (and gals) not really here?

              Estimated Monthly Traffic US Visits per Month 11,829 People per Month 16,133

                  It's good to know I'm being referred to as "largely male"... I guess the cat's outta the bag now...

                          Pure bunkum data.

                          The only stat they might have got right (because it's easy, not that I have verified it), is the "The people who visit bt3central.com are also likely to visit" link on the right, where the websites we refer to here are listed. But dunno why they missed youtube .

                            how do they know these things? Can they tell by the size of your internet packets?
