# Clicky releases new look for Spy real-time Web-traffic analytics

\[HTML3\]Like many bloggers, I’m wee bit addicted to tracking and stats and whatnot. Who’s reading what? When are they reading it? What’s popular? What’s not? Does anyone really care?

I want to know. And that’s why, real-time Web-traffic analysis like Portland-based [Clicky](http://getclicky.com "Clicky")‘s [Spy feature](http://getclicky.com/stats/spy?site_id=32020 "See Clicky Spy on the test account") are especially addicting for me, as well.

So imagine my surprise when the interface suddenly changed on me today—for the better.

While I haven’t seen an official Clicky announcement or blog post yet, the [Clicky Twitter account did mention that they were working on it](http://twitter.com/getclicky/status/2727894300 "New Clicky Spy"). I’m just not sure if they’re still testing the interface or if it’s officially released.

**UPDATE**

[Clicky has posted a blog entry about the updates to Spy](http://getclicky.com/blog/166/major-updates-to-spy "Major updates to Spy"). And they’ve included a video as well.

Honestly, I had a difficult time closing the window before when it just kept updating links and IP addresses. But now? Now I can’t take my eyes off of it.

Why? It’s super easy to see what’s happening on your site: who’s there, where they’re from, how many people are currently on the site. All available at a glance.

And it just keeps updating. And updating. And updating.
