Visits to the BJ Retirees blog increased dramatically in 2006 with the sale of Kinght Ridder which was approved in June, the subsequent sale of the Beacon Journal and the big staff cuts at the newspaper.
Visits to the blog increased from 8,883 at the beginning of the year to 32,245 on our December report. The average number of visits increased from 36 a day at the beginning of the year to 73 the week ending December 27. There were 129 the week ending November 8.
The number of visits each week increased from 245 at the beginning of the year to 508 the week ending Decemvber 27. The highest was 900 the week ending November 8,
In the 29 months since the blog was established in July, 2004, there have been 824 articles posted or an average of more than 28 a month. The number probably will top 1,000 in the next couple of months.
A web site was opened September 18, 2006 to allow use of articles too long for the blog and for storage of informatin files such as our list of postal addresses of retirees. A Commentary section also was added. There are links on the web site and on the blog so you can jump easily from one to the other.
