Interesting to-do list task: see what subjects or subject areas are in demand from that list, and make a list of related subjects in the area that aren't covered or could do with serious work.

Interesting. I am surprised that "Irukandji jellyfish" came so high up on the list... is there some anomoly here?
Jellyfish wasn't on the list at all last night; the statistics are sampling (I think) one in five thousand pageviews, so it's quite likely a glitch. They've only been running for a couple of days, and I'd strongly advise against treating them as reliable until at least a fortnight in.
That said... JonBenet Ramsay is interesting - it surged last night and with no link from the front page. Interesting to see how quickly our use (apparently) reacts to news stories. The sex-related ones - lists of porn stars etc - were consistently high and are now dropping; I wonder where they'll stabilise at.
(It could just be they're more popular at weekends...)
