I have come to the conclusion that most, possibly over 60% of Neowinians are people currently still in college. Why? Because judging by the drop of posts posted overall these couple days (almost week? didn't keep track). Most college students has gone home for Spring Break. And I doubt they would haul their comp back home just so they can post on Neowin.

... But hey, what do I know? :ditsy:

How did you come to this conclusion?

This is a trend BTW so what we (the admin) have seen is a rise or gradual erection in posts. ;)

LOL... first let's clear a few things up. Firstly, yes, alot of people here are students [i'm 16 and in school], and secondly, the holidays only started for us today. Today was the last day this term that I went to school, and we would have gone to school tomorrow if not for an inset day.

NEway, just because there are a lot of young people here doesn't mean that the points they raise are any less valid, and some of the younger people I talk to are quite articulate [there are actually 12yr olds surfing the forums here].

Finally, here in the UK people tend not to immediately go on holiday as soon as the holidays start so there wouldn't be any noticable sudden decrease. Perhaps the fewer posts could be due to the nicer weather that has been showing here in Wales [boy does it rain a lot so when it's sunny EVERYONE goes out].

I'm a college student, but my spring break was at the beginning of the month.

It also seems everyone I talk to's spring break is at different times, so maybe you're wrong..

but, maybe, just maybe, you're right...

it is a theory anyways :D

Looking at the logs there are alot of students. Whether or not there is a drop in posts I can not say, but I can say that there is a large amount of IPs coming from colleges, school libraries, etc.
