Thanks for that Martin. Having consulted the site http://www.alexa.com/site/help/?index=12, I found the graph somewhat less useful (though the New Year differences are still amusing).

Thanks Matt,
I googled your acronyms - no comment and I will have a nice day

We all have to live with our histories Steve. I will continue to engage in dialogue here and leave it to others to make judgment about my contribution.

My perception was that you were pretty p***ed off before the introduction of roles, in fact my memory is that you only returned here after roles were introduced (no connection obviously!!).  I think the complexity point you raise is interesting but you don't really serve your argument by what you say.  The graphs are not about 'sales' but hits so the steady state of Moodle does not support your argument/ prejudice/ whatever since the 1.6ers are still accessing web pages.  We could have an interesting discussion about a 'simpler' version of Moodle but is that really your point?

I find the explanation of the BB surge somewhat more convincing.

I have this Alexa comparison graph on my Netvibes desktop, and I have always been encouraged by Moodle's steady progress.


I was little perturbed at the new BB peak. OK Blackboard peaks at semester start (and dips at Christmas/New Year) but the peak is higher than last year and Moodle does seem to have slowed its increase.
Any interpretations?
