Have you ever wanted a stats system for your website that collected a ton of data and presented all of it in a beautiful desktop client? Woopra is your answer to that. It has live tracking and web stats, displaying your viewers in real-time and even letting you start a chat with them if you fancy. Woopra displays all your data on a desktop app that they are planning to be skinnable by all the graphic artists out there. Now, because Woopra tracks and displays live data, allowing admins to respond to sudden spikes in traffic. Woopra also lets you track multiple blogs/websites on one account, making it easy for larger companies with lots of websites to track everything easily. Another cool feature is the search bar, letting you search through things like geographical views, IP addresses, and visitor incoming links. You can also see custom notifications for things like traffic spikes, certain users visiting, or ad clicks.
To get Woopra working for you, just sign up for Woopra, install the appropriate plugin for your site (WordPress, vBulletin, or general Javascript), and lastly download the client (see below).

Adobe recently released the newest beta of Flash Player, code-named “Astro,” the program we all know and love for giving us sites like Vimeo and Kongregate. The new version brings some very cool new features for developers and users alike. Developers can use effects like anti-aliasing and rotation on text, and custom filter support. Users will see a boost to video viewing because the video is now played with the user’s video card, leaving the CPU free to do other things. Adobe has graciously made a new flash application that takes advantage of Flash’s new features, dubbed The Pixel Bender. I bet your excited to get the new beta, eh? Windows users, take advantage of the large download button below, Mac and Linux users can get the beta here.
