India as "geo" well it means the folks coming to the site are from India. not sure I can really say anything more than that.</p> guys thanks for your kind comments and support. appreciate that. vinu, specifically to your question, i think the daily readership is close to about 45,000 folks. this includes about 3200 in bloglines, 4000 or so in rojo plus other reader-software. the split if 50/50 between RSS and HTML as per october data i collected. should have more #s later.

  1. how many readers do you have?? I see close to 3200 readers on Bloglines and seeing that around 40% of good blogs have it subscribed thru’ Bloglines I think it would translate in the ballpark range between 7500 to 9000! wow thats soo cool.

  2. This stat ” India is the #2 geo (tied with Canada & ahead of the UK) after the US ” does it mean => people from India, Canada and US are more proactive? i.e taking up survey and leaving comments? or is it the general trend in tech sites?

I did the same survey of TC readers a couple of weeks ago. When I gather that data, let's compare notes.</p> Om, The stats are interesting (and great), and you certainly had a large enough response size to get relevant results.
