Top 10 Blog Posts in 2010 and from 2010 (Because They’re Different)

I suspect that a lot of these views have been from old links or images, since a great deal of the posts above are at least a year old.  Still, it’s interesting to see what is getting the most attention this year.

(Note:  Google Analytics stopped working at around the time that I updated the blog, so the list below is based on post statistics that I have available to me–half from Google Analytics and half from Blogger’s new Stats feature, which doesn’t let me see deep enough to focus on content written in 2010.  Some of my selections are guesses based on data I have and the number of comments received.)

The differences between these two lists are pretty obvious.  The former is largely comprised of lists, which seems to prove that such things are traffic producers (which I’ve read is true, but have never done for the purposes of getting traffic, with the exception of #2 in list two).  I don’t know what to make of that.  I only do top # lists because they’re fun, and it’s starting to feel as though I’ve covered most of the topics that are reasonable enough to do.  But maybe new idea will spring up in 2011?  Who knows?

Now the big question is this:  what are your favorite posts of 2010?
