Woopra first impressions
A while ago I applied to use Woopra on this site and this morning received confirmation that my site had been added. For those who haven’t seen it, Woopra provides real time stats on your visitors. The service is still in Beta, so you need to sign up and then wait until your registration is approved. You also need to wait for approval on your site when you add it, so getting going in the Beta phase does take a bit of time.
Once you’re all approved though, getting it up and running is painless. I grabbed the Wordpress plugin and that was it – data immediately started appearing in my Woopra dashboard. While there is a web interface, the more impressive option is to get the desktop client and watch your visitors activity in realtime.

The client also has the option to “chat” to the visitors on the site. I haven’t managed to get it working yet, but it does seem a little bit big brother. Will see how that one works out.
As the site generates some more traffic I’ll post some updated impressions.
