Do you want
to know how the kiosk in your town is being used? We did too. To find out, we
set up each kiosk machine to keep track of every time someone touched the kiosk
screen or clicked the mouse. Once a month, a report is generated and we'll post
them here so we can all see how we're doing! The Kiosk Usage Report is
organized by columns:Kiosk - This is the kiosk name and the city
in which it is located. Some cities have more than one kiosk. In those cases,
there should be additional descriptive information to aid you in identifying a
particular kiosk. # of Users - This estimated number is derived
by counting any activity separated by 8 minutes of inactivity. So, for example,
if someone uses the kiosk and then walks away and 8 minutes elapse before another
person uses the kiosk, the usage is counted as one user. Because it is possible
for there to be more than one person using the kiosk between 8 minute lapses,
the number reported will be lower than the actual # of users. Pages
Printed - This is the number of pages (kiosk pages, not physical pieces of
paper) that have been printed out by this kiosk. Front Page Hits -
This is the number of times the front page has been viewed. (NOTE: For some kiosks,
this number will be zero. This is because the kiosk content has been changed to
a new, dynamic system, and a method for counting this page has not been put in
place yet. A modification to the statistics gathering procedures will need to
be made and is in progress.) Homes for Sale - This number reports
the number of times someone searched the list of Homes for Sale on this kiosk.
(NOTE: For some kiosks, this number will be zero. This is because the kiosk content
has been changed to a new, dynamic system, and a method for counting this page
has not been put in place yet. A modification to the statistics gathering procedures
will need to be made and is in progress.) 9:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m. Users
- This is a new statistic we are still trying to verify. The intent is to count
the number of times the kiosk is used late at night and overnight.
Pages
- This is the total number of pages viewed on your kiosk. Using this number in
conjunction with front page hits can provide you with an indication of how much
the kiosk is truly being used versus how many people are seeing the front page
and walking away.
