Larky, according to Marian Questi's stats our visitor traffic has gone up. "The First Day traffic was up 23% to 16 from 13, while the broader First Week traffic count rose 10% to 22 from 20.". I haven't done my own version of first day and week numbers yet. |
14:45 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

I haven't done my own visitor statistics for last week yet, but Marion Questi reports that both first day and first week visits were up last week. |
15:13 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
I consider Larky to be among the reasons for that. |

I haven't updated any of the graphs this week. I'm expecting an update from Madori Linden, but she reported that she had had some technical difficulties moving some resions out of the education reserve (ones there when it was established) |
15:15 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
thank you |
15:15 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |

Samm Florian |
Also, fer the first time that I can remember, the Caledon map hasn't changed since th'last Rose Hunt. That seems like a good thing. :) |
15:20 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
BTW, if you want the title or description of your above advanced building class updated, send me a notecard. Based on something Larky had shown be, note that the names "Sculpt Studio" and "Mesh Studio" refer to pieces of software. |
15:20 |
Larky (larkylouz) |
yeah! |
15:21 |
Samm Florian |
I've been callin' it "Building Studio", open to other ideas. It's less of a formal class and more like "let's build stuff together" |
15:21 |
Samm Florian |
With an eye to education of course. |
15:21 |
Wordsmith Jarvinen |
