So today my task is.. find a new web stats package for my web servers at the city. Essentially all this type of software does is count web page views by the public and show reports, graphs, etc. on how many people are using the site. Big freakin deal. It's a bean counter.
For some reason, however, the software out there seems to be either open source spaghetti junk written by Perl gurus (good luck guys) or bloatware with wayyy to many features and wayyy too expensive. Seems like a common problem I have.
So rather than just having something nice and simple like, say, Google's offerings (This Blogger, Gmail, Maps, AdSense, etc.), I have to wade through what the "rest of the world" is able to come up with.
Wish me luck.
