It's near the end of summer and soon things will be changing outside. I'm hoping sales pick up when people aren't outdoors as much. Soon it will be shoppping season too. I plan on using my Lindens for some of my Holiday shopping and I wonder how many others do the same. Could we see a repeat of last fall when the Lindex reached 250/1 rate?? There sure seems to be a lot of users on lately. Have we hit 10K yet during the peak times?? I saw well over 9K, so we must be close. I'm a bit bored of watching the Lindex too. 297:1 seems to be what it is at most of the time now. I think this is good! Time to get back to work

School's in session as the summer ends...the money stops flowing when no one is around to buy it. A good strategy would be to wait until the weekend, then you should see a higher usage of both users and money flowng. But I haven't been watching it all that long maybe since the end of the school year in May.

Fall/Winter usually see an increase in online sales. I know personally from a few sites I run it can double if not triple on some days during this upcoming period.

Depends if what you are selling is being bought by school kids or not. I don't think the <18 market drives too many of my sales.

Thats only if they also have a full course load, which again, even less market influence as school proably also sucks them dry. But there is an effect on some, that is true. But do we all sell pencils?  j/k
