Whos.Amung.Us taking Web Stats to a Whole New Level

One of the fastest growing stat counters includes Whos.Amung.Us, although it’s major growth started in Late 2007 but recently I started seeing it’s widget on many of my favorite blogs so I thought of giving it a try.
It was started by two Canadians namely Bart Bobrowski and Christopher Shannon, both graduated from the University of Calgary. At the time when I was writing this article whos.amung.us was serving 44,232,434,240 widgets and 238,797 users, which is a big amount. There are extra features being added to the service soon which would make it even better. I was amazed with their service because of the following reasons:

• You do not have to sign up, just copy a tracking code and your website is on the scene!
• It gives you live stats all the time since it works on AJAX.
• It tells you how many visitors are on the website, on which page they are, and which country they are from.
• It is absolutely free!

Was that enough to excite you? Here is what they say in their About page:

whos.amung.us was created to bring you innovative web stats. We are not traditional. Page views are too easy to count. Instead, our widgets tell you how many users are on your website or blog right now, what pages they are on, how many of them there has been in the past, and where they come from - live.

This is how my stats showed up. I highly recommend Whos.Amung.Us to everyone because of their free and easy use, with no sign-up at all. Let me know what you think about their service.
