Just for the fun of it, I took Joe's KivaFriends.org server stats from last summer and plugged them into Excel real quick. Based generally on site usage, this is what it looks like for the top 10 countries.

US - 91.43%
International - 8.57%

US - 91.43%
Germany - 3.98%
Canada - 3.10%
Great Britain - 0.85%
Australia - 0.30%
Netherlands - 0.14%
China - 0.06%
Sweden - 0.05%
Belgium - 0.05%
Finland - 0.04%

What does it mean. Virtually nothing now, but it's fun with numbers. Maybe it'll prompt Joe to post new stats which makes me, as a webmaster, drool.

After last summer many countries broadcasted the Oprah show featuring Kiva. I wonder if that would be visible in the new stats. But seeing this nice list I was wondering what the nationalities of us Kivafriends are.

If your country of residence if different from your nationality you can place two votes. And if you move you can change your vote or add a second vote. That will probably make this poll very unscientific, because some people have two votes and others only one but so be it, it is not science anyway. I am just curious. Smiley

Exactly Mark, that's called foresight. The plan was (and still is) to have Canada above to protect & shield us from all the scheiss raining down.
You folks have been doing an excellent job!!!
