Well this thread seems to have been read quite a bit (39,000 and counting) - considerably more than all the others mentioned above. Very unusual - its not even a LabView one.

I think that thread was sent out in some marketing literature since it is full of CVI tips 'n tricks, hence the large number of views.

 

Thanks,

Over 8 million views seems very strange. Even if everyone interested in a PXI-5660 looked at that page 10 times that would mean there are nearly a million people looking at that page.

 

If this is due to marketing e-mail from NI well then NI should be very pleased with its effectiveness!

Does a web crawl get counted as a view?  If so, then older threads or perhaps threads with a lot more links into them would get a higher view count if the google spiders continually go in and recrawl the pages.

So I can't actually go back very far with the data, so I pulled it for all of 2009 to date.  It excludes web crawler traffic so it's a more accurate representation of popular threads.  You can find the top 50 threads in the attached file.

 

Thanks,

Thank you Laura!

 

I started to look through this list this week-end. Ideally I would like to see the totals for all time but this does get me started.

 

Started on what?

 

The most viewed threads tell me what people are coming here to look for rather than me guessing. So Nugget targeted at those topic should have maximum impact and represnt where the forum needs the most work.

 

So thank you again!
