babes of spam #35

Published on 2/6/2010 in Babes of Spam. 0 Comments Tags: babe, scam, spam.

A bunny girl sent me a note today, sadly she was a tad late for Easter.

I search love forever
Hello. Please do not be surprised, this letter is not sending spam.
You probably will be very surprised that I’m writing you this letter.
But yesterday, I was surprised too, when my e-mail address, I received
a letter which spoke of love, the feelings between people. The main
motto of this letter was the phrase “Look for love and you’ll be
happy.” I liked this letter. In the e-mail address, I saw your e-mail
and decided to write to you. Did you mean love? Perhaps this letter -
the fate? I do not know how the person who sent me the letter, got my
personal e-mail. But I think that it is not important. The most
important thing is that now I can write you a letter. You know, I want
to know you more. But first, I want to tell a little about me. My name
is Lusinne. I am 29 years old. I have never been married and have no
children. I’m nice, quiet, kind and sociable girl. It will be
interesting to talk with you and learn you closer. I build their
communication with the main goal – the creation of serious relations.
Relations without deception, without any games. I want to find a real
man who can love and respect me. I hope that you also would like to
find love? I believe in romantic relationships, appearance and age is
not the main thing. The most important thing that a man could love and
respect for real! I have different hobbies and interests, among them -
sports, cooking, reading, music. Of particular interest to me is
housekeeping, cleaning the house. I love to experiment in the kitchen.
I love animals. I lead a healthy lifestyle. I do not smoke nor drink
alcohol. My new friend, can you tell me about you? I want to know you
more. In these letters, I’ll tell you about me more detail.
I give you my e-mail address: lusinnesia@BonBon.net

Of course, I will send you a lot of my photos, from which you will
know my life. In my photo shows all the moments of my life – joy,
thoughtfulness and even in some moments of sadness. I look forward to
wait for your answer. I really want to know you more. Please do not
forget about me. Lusinne.

google analytics visualisations

So like many people who run a whole bunch of website I use Google Analytics to track visits to those websites. GA — for those unfamiliar with the product — is a free Google service that works via an embedded bug on each webpage on the site. When activated it reports useful anonymised information back to Google including IP address, browser and OS version, page referrer etc. When this information is combined with other stuff Google already knows about, including the location on Earth of most IP addresses (i.e. the one your computer is using right now) and the analytics from other sites also embedding the GA bug they’re able to produce some extremely interesting graphs that can help you work out what content is popular on your site, how people are finding it and what impact changes you make over time have on attracting a larger audience.

Anyways…
This morning I saw a link to http://www.google.com/analytics/apps/results — I’m not sure where now, maybe it was in my RSS aggregator. That link has links to a bunch of other useful apps some for iPhone/iPad, and some web apps like the following:

Juice Analytics talks directly to the GA API and can produces the most wonderful looking visualisations. All of the image on this page were produced using the analytics reporting from this web site. These next two being the results of my most popular piece of content:
