Your tactics are indeed well preferred amount tech-no savvy people like the LUG members but the general public are not as sophisticated and they tend to make stupid mistakes like visiting phishing sites. What I recommend to the general public, what I demand of my customers and what I practice myself require different skill levels.
I don't think the general public could be trusted to hack their own hosts file, most sheeple don't even know they have a hosts file. Any way. My point is. Google has a free tool that analysis web site traffic in great detail. I am using it on a site where I do not have access to the code and they offer it as a free tool. I don't mind if Google knows who is visiting my site. I do want Google to know about my site so every thing I have seen about this free and well designed tool is good. Happy hacking. :) On Mon, Apr 27, 2009 at 1:58 PM, Dana Harding <[email protected]> wrote: > So - you recommend that people disable javascript by default. > But then, the first time any of those people visit any of YOUR sites - they > get a big (annoying) div stating that they need it enabled? > > Can I suggest not doing this, unless your site contains content that NEEDS > javascript to function? > IMHO, fancy menus do not qualify as needing javascript.
