Link to these all you want -- I have plenty of bandwidth to spare. These are tested and pretty much guaranteed to work and keep updating even through moneybombs.

Updates and Minibombs

I apologize for not keeping this blog up to date. This will be remedied. Meanwhile, I'm watching today's moneybomb. Keep the money coming!

I've also added a small feature: you can now choose if you want to see the time period and the units for which you wish to see statistics.

Offline donations incorporated

On Oct. 25th the Ron Paul campaign manually added $430k of offline donations to the flash widget without adding it to the database totals. I have finally added this information to the statistics and projections table, but I have left the graphs untouched.

For a while I didn't want to incorporate this into any graphs, because suddenly adding that large an amount would create a huge rate spike and throw all the averages out of whack. Even if I could manually correct for that (which I can), there would still be a huge, unexplained spike in the total donations graph.
Dan from ronpaulgraphs.com had added the spike to his graphs, and ended up removing it in the end, as it caused too much confusion. Instead of trying the same thing, I've opted to make use of the offline information only in the projection table.
