Strong local traffic Feb. 12

A very strong day yesterday with 27,358 unique visitors and 158,169 page views. All the traffic was local and local stories, led by Jenn Feals' excellent story on the EHS graduate who died in Australia, all did very well.

Special Kudos to Gina Carbone whose reviews of the movies "Cloverfield" and "Juno" were two of our top stories for the month. I'll post the top 50 stories from January on the blog shortly.
