The Finance Report:
Both of our major metrics have stalled out this week. Let's start with the value of the $US. As you can see from the graph below, the $US lost $0.001/EU (a tenth of a cent) which is essentially flat. This leaves Nana in the lead for an incredible 5th week. (Way to go old woman!) Once again, in terms of trying to win the contest, this is good news for everyone except Mo. However, overall it is disappointing news for all of us. But who knows what the future will bring?
CONTEST UPDATE:
Nana is STILL in the lead!
The winner of our contest (Grand Prize = 1 euro!) will be the one with the closest guess on May 21st, 2010.

THE WEB REPORT:
59 Countries...
It seems like just last week I was saying how there were plenty of countries left to join the blog. This week, we added one. Still, not bad. I remember in the first month or two of the blog, when I looked at the tracking reports, I was disappointed to see that 95% of the traffic was from the people writing the blog, and a few other close friends and family. These days we get a large portion of our traffic from OTHER adoring fans. (OK, ok... other people who happen to stumble upon us... Still, that's alot of stumbling!)
What must they think?
We can only wonder, unless of course they take the time to write and request a free postcard!

ReplyDeleteI used a very complex and scientific method to calculate the exchange rate on May 21st. I will prevail! (OK, I just put an index card up against the screen and figured out where it should be on May21st, but that involves slope/trend and projection).
ReplyDeleteNana plays the slots to get her number.
