17 Sep 09 Changing Times

Tags: tweeklyfm

So last.fm is performing upgrades this weekend, which means I have to push Tweekly.fm to another time.

Tweekly.fm currently starts at 11PM (GMT +2) which means that its 9PM GMT and 5PM in New York and and 2PM in San Francisco.  United States currently constitutes 90% of my traffic (yes that much). I wonder if it is because USA has the greatest cross section of twitter and last.fm users? I think it is mainly because the tweets have been sending in their “twitter” time, if you know what I mean…

So as an experiment, I’m going to run Tweekly.fm on Monday (because of the upgrade) on 12:00 GMT to see what Europe does.

Will be interesting to see the traffic changes. I think it will probably drop (more traffic from USA, means even more traffic from USA). Who knows, maybe it doesn’t change at all?

In the future, I guess I’ll have to make it so that each user can send theirs on their own time for maximum exposure… That is further down the development roadmap. But first, I’ll have to finish my currently new planned features for Tweekly.fm.
