One of the handy things about JetPack from WordPress.com is how it tracks statistics. I’m sure they get benefit from it too (like Google does from providing Google Analytics), but as an author/webmaster/etcetera it’s cool to see what brings people to the site.
WordPress.com also created a simple “Traditores 2013 in Blogging Annual Report” to wrap up last year…and I figured, “Why not make it public?” It has fireworks. 🙂
