Miscellaneous ramblings of a web developer called David Parkinson. I work full time as a web developer but have interests in other things.
My blog has been online just over a week and im pretty happy with the results so far. daparky.com launched on the 8th February 08 and each day i’ve gained more visitors according to Google Analytics. Below is graph from the 8th up until now. (click to enlarge)
As you can see i had a big spike yesterday due to an article submitted to digg. I currently have 4 subscriber via feedburner but i’m not going to display the count until i’ve got a good amount of subscribers.
