Some stats for the press release: (none / 1)

Up to July 14 we had 28034 signatures.
We garnered an additional 632 on July 15 alone, and 598 (and counting) on July 16, and this without advertising!
People really must not like the idea of a Blair presidency.

The peak-to-trough part of the business cycle is an outlier. Carnot would have died laughing.

Re: Some stats for the press release: (4.00 / 2)

'Stop Blair' brings up a lot of referring sites (to Stop Blair.eu). The trick, as ever, in attracting audience on the web, is to come up with the keywords that people enter into search engines, especially when they are pissed off.

A lot of searching is reactive, rather than proactive - thus the keywords have to work when people are excited and emotional, not contemplative.

We should get some input from Colman: what are the words people are entering in search engines to reach stopblair.eu? (I presume he is running google analytics on the site?)

29324 at the end of July 16, that makes it 658 on July 16.
