For the newspaper reader who spends a lot of time on the pot, and has an extremely narrow bathroom: The Loo Read. Broadsheet model available for a mere £69.99, or roughly $14,000. Roughly. These should be standard equipment in newspaper office bathroom stalls.

A nice summary of some of the utter drivel that polluted the airwaves during May sweeps.

Oh, Google Analytics, I love how kooky you are. At the moment, for example, you’re showing me data from today, but nothing for the last nine hours of Thursday. It’s so fun and unpredictable!
What I really love is the way you’ve communicated absolutely nothing to your users throughout this whole week of sketchy performance. Very [...]

No need to write my own post on the implications for newspapers of Adrian Holovaty’s latest project because Matt Waite already said what I was thinking: Why you, newspaper.com, need to fear this. Seriously, go read it. Then share it with your colleagues and editors. Then do something about it, for Pete’s sake. As Matt [...]

The old interface is showing data for today, but still isn’t displaying anything from 4 p.m. to midnight Tuesday. And the new interface isn’t showing anything today. Just looking for [...]

Google Analytics hasn’t been reporting any results for more than 20 hours now. Annoyed. Drop by the Analytics Help section of Google Groups to commiserate if you’re similarly devastated by the loss of your statistical heroin drip. This is merely a personal annoyance for me, but I’d be livid if I was using Google Analytics [...]
