Last Free Moments
I start my new job on Monday and had a few projects I wanted to work on before then. The first thing I needed to do was complete my move to a new server for all the sites I host. My new host, Site5 was able to host Ruby on Rails sites and I had a Rails project that needed to be hosted. I got all the my sites moved over and started focusing on my semi-big Rails project, swap-bot (more info soon), but ran into some server troubles before everything was done. While waiting for Site5 to fix the problem I came up with an idea for a little site that tracks website clicks. I can now track which links on my home page my visitors click on.
I call the project Track My Links and have made it available to anyone who would like to try it out. The tracking features are pretty well flushed out, but I have some work left on the reporting features. I have decided to wait for feedback before putting too much more work into this project.
If you do try Track My Links, please sent me your feedback. Was it easy to install? If not, how could I make it easier? What do you want to see it do? Does it do everything you expected it to?
Enjoy your last weekend before heading back into the work world! Your weekend project sounds rather significant. Hopefully you will finish everything this weekend. Just be sure to clean the house before Rachel gets back home!
I never said anything about this place being messy….
Do I understand this correctly? The feature will let me see which of MY links my visitors go to? And that would tell me which links they find interesting and which they tend to skip over?
Exactly!
