New Member Stats
Overlap with Legacy Libraries is split from the main stats page. We're up to 13 complete "Legacy Libraries" now—W. H. Auden, Eza Pound and Walker Percy* were just addded. I can't link to yours directly, but here's mine.
"Talk and Group Statistics" provides way too much information about how you've used the Talk feature, including statistics like total messages, total messages by group and month and even a word count of all messages. (I have apparently written 336,449 words in Talk, which comes to some 1,121 typewritten pages!)
"Talk and Group Statistics" are private—other members can't see your stats. Privacy aside, we didn't want the stats to become, um, boasts. For demonstration purposes, however, all LibraryThing employees, however, are wide-open. Check out mine, Chris' and John's.
By popular demand, I have also included a nostalgia link to "Your first message." Let me know what other stats you want on Talk.
*I was pleasantly surprised to find Walker Percy also read Thomas S. Kuhn's The Structure of scientific revolutions and Malinowski's Magic, science and religion.

I notice you're not letting us see your first post!
Tim's first viewable comment is message 5 in topic 13.
Topic 11 is the first available topic still viewable, and the rest don't load so I presume they were tests (which would have contained Tim's "first post") :p
Yeah, that was why.
Thomas Kuhn? Yeah, I was startled that Walker Percy owned a book by Martin Amis.
...and Chris's first post was actually Tim posting as Chris by accident. ;)
It's not a stat I want on Talk... but I do miss the shortlived "Current Reading" option when you added a book... I know it's in the Edit Book page, but it was nice to be able to flip it on and off as I added new books.
