This week has been a fireworks experience for me as Brain Posts passed the 3 million pageview mark.
I started the blog in 2009 and have posted 676 posts over the last six years.
I started the blog primarily as a note-taking forum for my scientific reading. I select neuroscience research I feel is noteworthy and important from PubMed. Selecting a single study for more detailed notes has been a helpful focus and memory tool.
Over 400,000 Brain Posts pageviews have come via the research blogging aggregation website ResearchBlogging.org. They have a very helpful tool for adding citations to scientific blogs. I highly recommend adding their website to your RSS feed and following them on Twitter @ResearchBlogs
I want say thanks to everyone who has been accessing Brain Posts. Readers from the U.S. are the top readers of the site. But I want to also thank readers from around the world including those from the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany and India who rank in the top 5 international Brain Posts pageviews. Thanks also to the growing number of readers from Russia and Ukraine in the last year
Brain Posts will remain a commercial free, non-profit site that does not accept sponsored or guest posts.
I try to limit self promotion on Brain Posts, so you won't see another post like this until 4 million pageviews. Follow me on Twitter @WRY999 for real-time updates to the blog and other links I find informative. You can also subscribe to Brain Posts by using the subscribe by email button on the upper right.

Best wishes: Bill
