Can any statistician explain the clockwork regularity of many of these sites' popularity? http://traffic.alexa.com/ graph?u=apple.com&u=dell.com&u=ibm.com&u=hp.com&u=sony.com Most appear to have a sinusoidal curve with a period of a month. Sony's is a poor fit, and Apple's maybe stochastic. Alexa seems to be unavailable, so i am posting the most recent results. Perhaps they are related..... thanks Jonathan Chetwynd http://www.peepo.co.uk "A web by people with learning difficulties"
