A Chrome Extension for Clicky Web Analytics
Clicky is an amazing web analytics service. Its killer feature is the ability see data in real-time, allowing you to watch your visitors as they browse your site.
I love Clicky, and I love their API. Because the analytics data is available immediately, I found myself wishing I could have a constant notification of how many visitors were on my site without having to leave a tab or window open all the time.
I also love Google Chrome. As soon as LastPass made an extension for it, Chrome became my default browser. After reading a little about Chrome extensions and how they were just HTML and JavaScript, I knew what my next project would be… ClickyChrome.
Update: A year after releasing ClickyChrome, I’m changing the name to Clicky Monitor to comply with Google’s new branding guidelines.
