I enjoy all the curious data points that you can find in Google Analytics. For instance, when watching the downloads of our free Prophecy platform, it seemed curious to me that Thursday was repeatedly the day of the most downloads. Here’s a chart comparing the most recent two weeks:

The chart starts on Monday and in both weeks Thursday is the day of the highest number of downloads. Going back to look at other weeks, it seems to be a common occurrence… not in all weeks, but in many of them.

Why?

I haven’t yet dug into more source details to try to see what causes this recurrence, but I will at some point.

Meanwhile, I’ll ask you all… when is the last time you downloaded Prophecy? Was it a Thursday?
