[Sigia-l] Less than one-minute visits

I've noticed this in the logs for my portfolio site. It seems to mean that
people are clicking around to get a sense for (a) what the site is about (b)
quickly scanning content and (c) checking for recent changes. People usually
click through about 10 pages before they leave.

Can you trace the users' paths through the site? You may find that this is
what your site visitors are doing.
