TSW is officially the blog online this January of 2008, ie 6 months more thing less thing, and thought its time to make a point about the blog and some statistics and thanks.

In January I started to write Adobe Flex from scratch, which in its first part the feedback has been very low or almost zero, but only achieved (during a month) about 60 downloads ... I was a little disappointed but in the end I came to the conclusion that ultimately what was written in this tutorial was virtually the installation of flex Hello world with an example that could easily find anywhere. Decided not give up and go to Phase 2 of the tutorial, which ultimately prove to flex a little more but once again the party had very little feedback. I came to the point of quitting. I stopped and thought: Whatever, I just write and to learn ... also continued in Part 3, and decided to start putting some references to my work on lists such as flex-brasil, flexdev and riaPT, then I was surprised at The BOOM has happened, resulted from the month of February / March and the blog is multiplied in visits, reaching the month of March, April and May average of 5,000 visits a month and then the downloads of the tutorial and a few articles amazed me.

Part 4 and 5 of my tutorial, along with the tutorial Action Script 3, as well as writing a daily blog posts, the blog has made triple their visits, reaching 15,700 in June visits firing the ranking and indexing of almost all the content of your blog on Google. This month has already seen around 7500. All these data can be seen in the picture below (data from the stats wordpress)

As for the numbers of downloads, just started the counts them with a new system from April 22, so that before the blog was with some problems and upgrades and would be impossible to detect all downloads.

Last month and this month's blog has generated a traffic of 55 GB of data is expected for up to 70 GB by the end of the month.

As you can see, is for you that the TSW continues to work.

With only I (Mario Santos) behind so much work and posts written, already has 105 posts which gives an average of 1 post of 2 in 2 days, I now fornececer this data to encourage you to contribute to the blog, not you must have many skills, which only involved placing news, tutorials for its authorship, review / links to tutorials that are familiar, small pieces of code that may even be as simple as a hello to the world your way.

Then attempts to employees, who can register on the blog by using the following link: http://msdevstudio.com/blog/wp-admin and can begin to put your articles that initially will be subject to a moderation of me, but if any authors with their contributions is worthy will change your account to publisher that can automatically place posts without moderation.

The most frequent contributor and participatory until September will be rewarded, not monetarily but receive some surprises, as well as direct access to the development of some tutorials at my stage of development among other things.

And since both TSW make a difference, announce a new project I have in mind, already well defined in terms of layout and content, but without much technical work and programming behind, and that is why I am announcing and that if all goes as planned have legs to be a success and will certainly mark the world of FLEX in Portuguese and beyond! (hopefully ...)

They can see the details on the official web site: http://flexzone.msdevstudio.com and who are interested contact me to inform of progress and other details, who are not interested in participating can always pass the word and publicize the project. Briefly put a blog or forum where they can discuss the project.

To all you guys who make a success of TSW a thank you!

Come back when!

Big hug!

Mario Santos.
