User stats!

Over the past weeks we have received a lot of feedback from the Postcrossing members for what kind of statistics they would like to see. While we can't possible implement everything that was requested (or the system would be too complex to both use and make) we collected what were the most requested items and started working on it.

Today I'm happy to announce that we have the new user statistics ready for you to give it a try! Each account has its own personal statistics that reflect its account data.

You can access your own stats using the left menu on 'My stats'. Please keep in mind this is work in progress so if you find any problems, be sure to tell us so we can fix it as soon as possible.

As usual, please let us know what you think!

Willemijn, Netherlands
I think it's great.
But (little but):
Do the expired cards contribute to the averages? I think they should not. Gives us a better idea which countries have the speediest post(wo)men!

Woa! Great stuff, thanks! I love it! Only... have to have a fast connection, at work (slow connection) no results. To many cards, I'm afraid ;)
Well done,

Gilles, Belgium
Another great addition to postcrossing. My thanks to the whole postcrossing team :)
Maybe one remark. According to my stats, i received 1 postcard from Luxembourg, but the ID-number is DK-2757. Maybe this member moved from Denmark to Luxembourg and is that the reason why it shows Luxembourg instead of Denmark.

JEM, United States of America
I have enjoyed the stats, but for some reason for 2009 they are showing nothing or very few, and I think I have as many traveling postcards as before; plus March is on there and we aren't even to March yet. Is there a problem with updating the stats? There is a precipitous drop and I have been sending and receiving postcards...maybe I am doing them more at one time rather than one at a time, but they are still being received etc...so...I'm not sure what is going on with the graph?

paulo, Germany
@JEM: thanks for the heads up on that. There was a small glitch concerning February (which has less days). It should be working good now (make sure to refresh your browser to get the updated version), thanks for reporting!

Pimennys, Finland
It is working absolutely great and I enjoy this new feature it is really fun to see from which countries you have received and how many different ones you have had. :) I like this new feature a lot. :)
Posted by Pimennys on 7 Feb, 2009


JEM, United States of America
yes, I see that march isn't there any longer; however, it still shows a lot fewer postcards for february; not sure why.
