The annual report designers like big numbers too..

cannualreport.pdf

Lots of boxes saying interesting things like:

"56% of children in Great Britain aged 7-15 accessed bbc.co.uk/CBBC in
December 2005"
"91.6% of programming on BBC One was subtitled in 2005/2006" etc etc

Subject: RE: [backstage] BBC site statistics

Something I noticed earlier today - the BBC News pages show how many
pages have been served in the past minute, and that cycles round with
other facts about the site... When I was looking earlier this morning
(around middayish) it showed over 73,000 pages served THAT MINUTE -
that's insane! Right now it's saying "82,357 people are reading stories
on the site right now."

!

Sometimes I forget just how massive the audience is for the beebnews
pages...
