Further statistics?

Hey Jon,

Have you done any mapping to see how many times a person comes to the page on average per day? Paying versus non-paying..

How about the following:

Limit non-paying members to seeing 5-8 articles on the front page period.

I once heard that an NPR had to use a last ditch effort to get funds up.. so they went off the air for a week to save expenses. They got a lot of new members from people who didnt realize how much their freeloading was costing. Maybe a week or two closed to non-paying members to remind them that they stand to lose this resource permanently.

Anyway.. just a comment from the peanut gallery.
