For those who have an interest in such things: This category features a selection of posts which are currently viewed, and/or have been viewed over the years, by relatively large numbers of site visitors. I set up this site in 2011. It took me many years to realize how valuable it can be to keep track of site statistics – to find out which posts get the most views, as the years come and go.
