You know what would be interesting to see? Wikipedia hits from non-logged-in users... this would be a reasonble approximation of "customers" as opposed to "staff". I don't know if that's a feasible statistic to collect... - Khendon

Removed comment from article:

October 28, 2001, Wikipedia began receiving a substantially increased amount of traffic from Google, when they updated their indexing system. This will probably result in a permanent traffic increase of over 20% compared with the few weeks leading up to yesterday. Google already was far and away the most important source of traffic for Wikipedia. If the increase is permanent, then in terms of new personnel and increased article production and editing, we can expect that this will have a long-term effect similar to that of a major news article or of a Slashdotting.

since the stats do not appear to support this interpretation of a sudden jump that differs from previous patterns.

Why the sudden leap over the last few days? Is there any more detailed analysis of the last few days to see what the most popular articles have been? - Khendon 10:07 Mar 13, 2003 (UTC)

TRAFFIC ON OUR ROADS

Since the first car drove on our roads, getting to any place is as easy as counting your fingers. You can drive your own car or you could just take taxis to that specific place that you are wishing to go to.

The problem we are facing is the increase of vehicles on our roads. As vehicles increase on roads the space on roads is getting smaller since roads are not cannot expand. This has caused many problems on since they cannot get to work on time. At the end, it seems like we are trying to solve a problem with a problem because the aim of buying car is trying to get somewhere as soon as possible. But what if your car is causing other people not to be on time? 

Suggestions have been made like building additional roads to the current ones and using the same car as your friends to get to work and we hope it works
