Comments on: Firefox Usage – Does the Day of Week Have an Effect? http://blog.mozilla.com/metrics/2007/10/10/firefox-usage-%e2%80%93-does-the-day-of-week-have-an-effect/ Tue, 10 Jan 2012 04:12:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Ben http://blog.mozilla.com/metrics/2007/10/10/firefox-usage-%e2%80%93-does-the-day-of-week-have-an-effect/comment-page-1/#comment-153798 Ben Sat, 29 May 2010 16:10:18 +0000 http://blog.mozilla.com/metrics/2007/10/10/firefox-usage-%e2%80%93-does-the-day-of-week-have-an-effect/#comment-153798 Excellent info. I agree with the others. I have noticed the weekend is always much slower in terms of traffic and Ad revenue. The weekdays are more popular for sure, and it does start to decline for me on Fridays as well. Saturdays are almost always the worst. I was googling that to see if I could find data to support my suspicions, and sure enough, I found this post. Thanks! Excellent info.

We should eventually have the ability to drill down into the data as you suggest... unfortunately, we don't quite have the internal resources to do that slicing. In terms of drawing inferences from this data, the analysis was actually intended to simply help with some forthcoming funnelcake findings... I just thought it was somewhat interesting as a standalone topic. Ken Mike,

I can see how that might be more difficult. What's the best way to draw inferences from this data and then test them further?

It falls, really falls, every weekend and it spikes high on Monday. I have seen a very similar trend for websites I manage. It falls, really falls, every weekend and it spikes high on Monday.
