Bruce's Journal

Bruce Slutsky was born in New York City in 1949. I retired 8 years ago after working as a Science/Engineering Librarian at the New Jersey Institute of Technology in Newark for 25 years. I was married to Karen until she passed away in February 2021. I have a son Lee who is now 37 years old. I am very much interested in the popular music of the 1960s, especially Bob Dylan and the Beatles. I am interested in rock and roll radio. I am an enthusiastic fan of the New York Mets.

Google Analytics and this Journal

Google Analytics is a tool where people can analyze the activity of a web site. I have used it for most of the time the Bruce's Journal has been in existance. Some facts:

This journal averages about 25 hits per day
The most popular post is about my top 10 followers on Facebook
All of a sudden a book review I wrote about Bill O'reilly has gotten many hits. I commented that he has very strong Catholic values
For a while an entry about kosher delis closing in Queens closing received a lot of hits
For over a year articles that I wrote about Don K Reed and Jahn's Ice Cream Parlor have been popular.
Google analytics can not reveal the identity of a viewer, but sometimes I can figure out who it is from the geographic location.
