How long do people read my articles
-
I'd quite like to know how long people read before they press the download button or post a vote in the forum. If you were to add 0 point in the reputation history each time someone visit an article, we could sort of guess how long they've been reading before giving you a 1 or a 5.

How could you be certain that the user is actually reading for all that time and has not gone to lunch, fallen asleep, switched to a different app etc.

... or swapping to do some actual work in the office. :)

It would be an interesting stat. My feeling, though, is that there would be many cases where people read, leave, comeback and download.

Why would they do that? Uh oh, boss alert! :(

You've gotten me in a nutshell there, Chris. I tend to read the articles and often save the article page so that I can read it offline in my leisure, then if I want to dig deeper, I come back to the article to download the resources.
