Omni Brain

An exploration of the serious/fun/ridiculous - past/present/future of the brain and the science that loves it.

The Homunculus

steve_icon_medium.jpgThe Omnibrain is a psychology graduate student at an online university. He hopes that the three weeks and $29.95 that he is spending on his Ph.D. will get him a job at a Tier 1 research university. Do online universities have postdocs? Ok...just kidding, The Omnibrain is a real graduate student at a real school somewhere in the continental United States - or maybe Europe.

Fun with Analytics

Some of you (well, very few of you) know that I keep another blog, a brain sciences video showcase vlog called Channel N. I'm really into its statistics, and figure you want to know about them too.

My Technorati ranking has grown to a dazzling 260,350 of the approximately six million blogs online. 24 blogs have linked to me, and the number of people who've "favourited" Channel N has doubled to two. (One of them is myself, though.) Here's a screenshot as proof of my ranking. Feel free to distribute it.

RSS feed subscribers are currently at 49, and according to Google Analytics 23 people actually viewed the site today. I think there's an error on Google's part, though, because they report that the average time spent on my blog is 00:01:24 but most of the lecture videos are more like 01:24:00 long. The most popular link that people click is "View my complete profile." Here's the analysis for the past month so you can see the trends for yourself. Cool, huh?

I also maintain a blog called Neurofuture, but I'm not going to talk about that since readership keeps rising despite my best efforts not to post anything.

Ditto. Nice blog, and always show love for the multimedia heavyier sites.

As for Google Analytics, yeah, something is amiss. I use both GA and SiteMeter, and SiteMeter always shows a higher number - maybe 20-40% higher. Not many rss subscribers according to feedburner, but there is definitely something wonky.
