Weird Traffic

01-03-2009 10:55

Here is a brief description of how 'traffic' is calculated:

http://secondlife.wikia.com/index.php/Traffic

It is a poorly named method of calculating aggregate avatar-time on a given lot/parcel. To the best of my knowledge, there is no method to count actual traffic. Someone suggested that the Hippo rental boxes could do it, but I do not know.

I suggest that aggregate avatar-time be renamed 'AAT' (sounds similar to 'at' as in @) and that LL should publish actual traffic (the number of avatars that pass through a lot/parcel). It would be extremely useful to know the actual traffic associated with a lot/parcel on a given day.

Re your particular question, your own avatar is being counted in AAT!

Thanks for the new link: http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Traffic

It appears that 'traffic' = total avatar-minutes per lot per day. This includes your own avatar. I still think it would be very useful to know actual traffic (pass through).

That linked article's description of traffic is outdated and obsolete and has no bearing on how traffic is calculated now.

This whole Wikia appears to be obsolete, you might try checking out the SL Wiki instead at http://wiki.secondlife.com/

There use to be a Second Life History wiki, which sadly got merged in with the SL Wikia thing.
Now the history is being mangled.

I hope there's a non-editable copy of it before the merge.

Check the Special pages. All MediaWiki-powered wikis have a database dump feature that lets you download a snapshot of the wiki that day.

i think that's the OTHER story the Mock Turtle told, which, sadly, didn't make the cut for the final printing...
