			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Stats</strong>: I will be writing a post on statistics soon, but for the moment I though I&#8217;d share some of my visitor statistics with you, my visitors! We are halfway through January and I&#8217;ve already had over 800 unique visits and over 2,500 hits for the month. What I find more interesting (as a computer geek) are the browsers you are using and operating systems.</p>
<p>Browsers in order of popularity:</p>
<div id="attachment_303" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 385px"><img class="size-full wp-image-303" title="Graph of internet browser users" src="http://www.locusviridis.co.uk/sections/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/browsers.png" alt="Graph of internet browser users" width="375" height="316" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Firefox (Mozilla 5) was the most used browser with  224 users, followed by: Internet Explorer 6.0  (73 users), Internet Explorer 7.0  (55 users), Safari (8 users), and finally Internet Explorer 5.5 &amp; 5.0 (8 users).</p></div>
<p>Operating systems in order of popularity:</p>
<div id="attachment_305" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 385px"><img class="size-full wp-image-305" title="Operating system popularity" src="http://www.locusviridis.co.uk/sections/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/operatingsystemsgraph.png" alt="Operating system popularity" width="375" height="315" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Windows XP was the most used operating system with 260 users followed by: Windows Vista (15 users), MacOS (12 users) and Windows Server 2003 (3 users).</p></div>
<p><strong>Windows XP</strong> 260 users<br />
<strong>Windows Vista</strong> 15 users<br />
<strong>MacOS</strong> 12 users<br />
<strong>Windows Server 2003</strong> 3 users</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t know how representative of other blogs this is but I was a little suprised at how few people are using Vista. Unlike the internet average, more people are using Firefox here.</p>
<p><strong>News</strong>: I&#8217;m planning to add some more sections to Sections soon, and possibly jazz up the appearance. I intend to write a couple of reviews on books and compile a recommended entomology book list.</p>
<p>I did intend to write a little about gaming on here, but I&#8217;ve decided that I will use this blog more for science-related things and put gaming on a separate page on my <a title="Locus Viridis" href="http://www.locusviridis.co.uk/">main site</a> which is in need of more content!</p>
<p><strong>Links</strong>: I&#8217;ve added quite a few more links recently including:<br />
<a title="BioImages: Virtual Field-Guide (UK)" href="http://www.bioimages.org.uk/">BioImages</a><br />
<a title="Invertebrate Link: the forum for voluntary and professional organisations involved in the conservation and study of invertebrates in the UK." href="http://www.royensoc.co.uk/InvLink/Index.html">Invertebrate Link</a><br />
<a title="My Bit of the Plant: Diaries about wildlife in a garden in Hampshire" href="http://www.mybitoftheplanet.com/">My Bit of the Planet</a><br />
<a title="The Ranger's Blog" href="http://naturenet.net/blogs/">The Ranger&#8217;s Blog</a></p>
<p>Some of these were recommended to my by Stuart Hine &#8211; thanks Stuart!</p>
<p>Finally, a light entomophagy reading snack: have you ever thought about eating silkworms (<em>Bombyx mori</em>)? A Chinese research team has investigated <a title="Science now: Care for a Silkworm With Your Tang?" href="http://sciencenow.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/full/2009/113/2">silkworms as a potential food</a> for astronauts.</p>
