It's usually called plan statistics, at least that's what the hint is for. The title is still too bombastic for such a trivial content. Far too bombastic. -- Mladen Gogala The Oracle Whisperer http://mgogala.byethost5.com

Mladen, I think your response to the article has been more boombastic than the title. The newspaper industry is famous for such titles. You have a point in that article titles should match up to the content but 'simple' pieces of code like the subject can be very useful.
If you are going to blog, remember that you have limited time, limited space, and your readers will have limited time to spend on the article so you have to make compromises.
Good luck with the solo career.
