The other RDF

First it was (1), and suddenly it was (2). This transition left millions of geeks confused and doubtful about which side they were on.

What am I talking about?

Extended Statistics

—devadutta @ 19:56
c32e83ef738cb8afef524b4ef43dd2af.jpg

More stats! and this time, it comes with some eye-candy .

The above chart shows some extended stats for BB user “madhur”. The first pie chart is very simple to understand, but the second may not be obvious. It shows the number of times a user(madhur, in this case) has posted the correct answer first, as compared to the user who has posted the correct answer first the maximum number of times (which is “udupendra”, as of now).

To check out your extended stats, click on the “Hall of fame” link and then click on your user name and of course, the top 5 user’s stats are linked to from the main page..

Thanks to Google Chart API for the super cool graphs.
