[RePEc-announce] RePEc in October 2007

[Christian Zimmermann]

Hello!

Two new items this month: first we now have a blog, at 
http://blog.repec.org/ where we discuss issues relevant to RePEc and the 
Economics community in general. Second, we now attempt to classify authors 
by fields. See results at http://ideas.repec.org/i/e.html.

Coverage has tremendously increased this month fuelled by 15 archives and 
the old archives: over 34'000 new items are now listed. Traffic was also 
very high, setting records on several servers. Total traffic was 642,109 
file downloads and 2,280,187 abstract views.

Quite obviously, we passed a few thresholds under these circumstances:

120000000 cumulated abstract views
400000 items with download
300000 articles listed
250000 articles with download
90000 distinct papers announced through NEP
75000 papers with citations
17500 NEP reports
1750 chapters listed
