Most Viewed in 2009
There are well over 1,500 pages at this site. Most are very detailed descriptions
of functionality in Windows. They are the sort of thing that may be the key to
some advanced programmer being able to complete his work but which is beyond arcane
to everyone else. I am astonished that any of these pages get looked at even once
a day. Yet this site had 311,554 visits in 2009, though mostly to view one apparently
controversial page.
There follows a list of pages that were each viewed at least 1,000 times in
2009. The faded titles are just index pages which I presume are viewed only or
mainly on the way to others, especially while moving from one Table of Contents
to another. Two of these index pages are just the skimpiest of placeholders, pending
my writing an introduction.
