Minty goodness.

I have Mint installed on here as a novelty more than anything, but as I’ve been getting steady traffic (read: more than ten visitors a day) for months now there’s enough data to pick out a couple of interesting trends.

Referrers

Most of my referral hits come from three places:

• Google searches for “cool mac stuff,” which land here. Cool Mac Stuff is the most popular page on the site, and it’s easy to see why.
• Google searches for “naked quad run,” which land here (and will now doubtless land at this entry as well). Naked Quad Run is a tradition at Tufts in which people run naked laps around the quad to blow off steam before finals. Naturally it attracts a good amount of outside attention.
• StumbleUpon, which lands here. Someone added my roundup of the xkcd meetup to the database — under “Unknown,” for some reason — and every few days I get a big surge of Stumble-y traffic.

Of the other miscellaneous referrers, “expired salad dressing” recurs with notable regularity.

Browsers

59% of my visitors use Firefox!

Okay, that’s somewhat ridiculous, given Firefox’s ~15% market share. I blame the hordes of StumbleUpon fans for skewing the results.

After that, it’s 23% IE, 14% Safari, 2% Camino, 2% everything else.

Operating systems

65% Windows, 31% OS X, 3% Linux, 1% other.

No surprises here. The Mac percentage is likely bolstered by my incessant blathering about Apple. I do wonder about that “other” percent point, though.
