If you are reading this text online, you may have noticed that this project uses Piwik. According to its home page, Piwik is a “real time web analytics software program”. The results from Piwik give me detailed reports about my Web site visitors: where do they come from, which browser and operating system they use and so on.

Why Piwik? First it is open source, but that is not the main reason. The main reason why I use Piwik is it collects data anonymously to create statistical studies. With these results I can not only improve the HTML page but make the whole project better.

For example, if my visitors browsing the Web through Firefox, Opera, and Chromium instead of Internet Explorer, I can focus more on the first three browsers. Focusing on one area gives me more time to write cool new topics. Or improve existing text. Or draw nice graphics. Furthermore with the collected data I can see which topics are the most popular and which needs additional devotion. I hope you get the idea.

Just to make it clear: The collected data is completely anonymous and only used to improve this project. It will never be sold nor will it be used to spam you.
