Real Time Stats and Communication for Your Blog or Site

I love trying new things to make my sites more interactive and cool. I recently found a cool app that allows you to have real-time stats on your site as well as the ability to chat with a specific visitor on your site.

Woopra is the first step into what will be the future for websites and blogs. Imagine being able to see who is on your site, where they are from, what operating system they are using, and how long they have been there in real-time. Woopra uses a desktop client to monitor your sites.

INSTALLATION

Installation is very easy. When you get your account they give you a small piece of Javascript to put on your site. Once the script is on your site you will instantly start receiving information about your visitors.

USE


The desktop client is easy to use and looks great. It gives you as much information as any other stat tool but it allows for real-time interaction with your visitors.

PRICE

Currently the beta is free. They plan to have both free and paid services.

Currently it is still in private beta but if they let me have an account, they should let anyone have one. (Actually these invites are so hard to get that someone sold theirs on Ebay!) If you are interested check them out and sign up.
