Rather than try to quantify a total number of Gopher users, which is impossible to do completely or accurately, the GStats project has the following goals: - Demonstrate that there are still people using gopher. By plotting access and activity trends, the project can show user interest exists and that Gopherspace is more than a 'retro fad.' - Demonstrate that there is a significant population of gopher users not served by their particular Web client of choice, encouraging those browsers with Gopher support to preserve and maintain it as a valuable feature. - Demonstrate that a variety of hosts are accessed by the Proxy, not just any single large Gopher portal, encouraging not only current gopher wranglers to maintain their gopher-based services but also encourage the creation of new servers in the ecosystem. - Identify hosts being accessed by users that are not in the Veronica-2 database so that they can be indexed for search. We appreciate your comments to gopher@floodgap.com It is strongly recommended that you read the documentation below to properly interpret the statistics. -- Overview (trend graph updated monthly) -- TEXT Methodology of the Floodgap Gopher Statistics project TEXT How to interpret the Gopher Statistics graphs GIF Multi-month rolling Public Proxy usage trend bar graph -- Month-to-month data (updated monthly) -- TEXT How to interpret the Gopher Statistics graphs GIF 2007-05.gif GIF 2007-06.gif GIF 2007-07.gif GIF 2007-08.gif GIF 2007-09.gif GIF 2007-10.gif GIF 2007-11.gif GIF 2007-12.gif GIF 2008-01.gif GIF 2008-02.gif GIF 2008-03.gif GIF 2008-04.gif GIF 2008-05.gif GIF 2008-06.gif GIF 2008-07.gif GIF 2008-08.gif GIF 2008-09.gif GIF 2008-10.gif GIF 2008-11.gif GIF 2008-12.gif GIF 2009-01.gif GIF 2009-02.gif GIF 2009-03.gif GIF 2009-04.gif GIF 2009-05.gif GIF 2009-06.gif GIF 2009-07.gif GIF 2009-08.gif GIF 2009-09.gif GIF 2009-10.gif GIF 2009-11.gif GIF 2009-12.gif GIF 2010-01.gif GIF 2010-02.gif GIF 2010-03.gif GIF 2010-04.gif GIF 2010-05.gif GIF 2010-06.gif GIF 2010-07.gif GIF 2010-08.gif GIF 2010-09.gif GIF 2010-10.gif GIF 2010-11.gif GIF 2010-12.gif GIF 2011-01.gif GIF 2011-02.gif GIF 2011-03.gif GIF 2011-04.gif GIF 2011-05.gif GIF 2011-06.gif GIF 2011-09.gif GIF 2011-10.gif GIF 2011-11.gif GIF 2011-12.gif GIF 2012-01.gif GIF 2012-02.gif GIF 2012-03.gif GIF 2012-04.gif GIF 2012-05.gif GIF 2012-06.gif GIF 2012-07.gif GIF 2012-08.gif GIF 2012-09.gif GIF 2012-10.gif GIF 2012-11.gif GIF 2012-12.gif GIF 2013-01.gif GIF 2013-02.gif GIF 2013-03.gif GIF 2013-04.gif GIF 2013-05.gif GIF 2013-06.gif GIF 2013-07.gif GIF 2013-08.gif GIF 2013-09.gif GIF 2013-10.gif GIF 2013-11.gif GIF 2013-12.gif GIF 2014-01.gif GIF 2014-02.gif GIF 2014-03.gif GIF 2014-04.gif GIF 2014-05.gif GIF 2014-06.gif GIF 2014-07.gif GIF 2014-08.gif GIF 2014-09.gif GIF 2014-10.gif GIF 2014-11.gif GIF 2014-12.gif GIF 2015-01.gif GIF 2015-02.gif GIF 2015-03.gif GIF 2015-04.gif GIF 2015-05.gif GIF 2015-06.gif GIF 2015-07.gif GIF 2015-08.gif GIF 2015-09.gif GIF 2015-10.gif GIF 2015-11.gif GIF 2015-12.gif GIF 2016-01.gif GIF 2016-02.gif GIF 2016-03.gif GIF 2016-04.gif GIF 2016-05.gif GIF 2016-06.gif GIF 2016-07.gif GIF 2016-08.gif GIF 2016-09.gif GIF 2016-10.gif GIF 2016-11.gif GIF 2016-12.gif GIF 2017-01.gif GIF 2017-02.gif GIF 2017-03.gif GIF 2017-04.gif GIF 2017-05.gif GIF 2017-06.gif GIF 2017-07.gif GIF 2017-08.gif GIF 2017-09.gif GIF 2017-10.gif GIF 2017-11.gif GIF 2017-12.gif GIF 2018-01.gif GIF 2018-02.gif GIF 2018-03.gif GIF 2018-04.gif GIF 2018-05.gif GIF 2018-06.gif GIF 2018-07.gif GIF 2018-08.gif GIF 2018-09.gif GIF 2018-10.gif GIF 2018-11.gif GIF 2018-12.gif GIF 2019-01.gif GIF 2019-02.gif GIF 2019-03.gif GIF 2019-04.gif GIF 2019-05.gif GIF 2019-06.gif GIF 2019-07.gif GIF 2019-08.gif GIF 2019-09.gif GIF 2019-10.gif GIF 2019-11.gif GIF 2019-12.gif GIF 2020-01.gif GIF 2020-02.gif GIF 2020-03.gif GIF 2020-04.gif GIF 2020-05.gif GIF 2020-06.gif GIF 2020-07.gif GIF 2020-08.gif GIF 2020-09.gif GIF 2020-10.gif GIF 2020-11.gif GIF 2020-12.gif GIF 2021-01.gif GIF 2021-02.gif GIF 2021-03.gif GIF 2021-04.gif GIF 2021-05.gif GIF 2021-06.gif GIF 2021-07.gif GIF 2021-08.gif GIF 2021-09.gif GIF 2021-10.gif GIF 2021-11.gif GIF 2021-12.gif GIF 2022-01.gif GIF 2022-02.gif GIF 2022-03.gif GIF 2022-04.gif GIF 2022-05.gif GIF 2022-06.gif GIF 2022-07.gif GIF 2022-08.gif GIF 2022-09.gif GIF 2022-10.gif GIF 2022-11.gif GIF 2022-12.gif GIF 2023-01.gif GIF 2023-02.gif GIF 2023-03.gif GIF 2023-04.gif GIF 2023-05.gif GIF 2023-06.gif GIF 2023-07.gif GIF 2023-08.gif GIF 2023-09.gif GIF 2023-10.gif GIF 2023-11.gif GIF 2023-12.gif GIF 2024-01.gif GIF 2024-02.gif GIF 2024-03.gif GIF 2024-04.gif GIF 2024-05.gif GIF 2024-06.gif GIF 2024-07.gif GIF 2024-08.gif GIF 2024-09.gif GIF 2024-10.gif GIF 2024-11.gif GIF 2024-12.gif GIF 2025-01.gif GIF 2025-02.gif GIF 2025-03.gif
