'Stickiness' is a measure of the average length of time a reader remains at a website. Personally, I am more impressed by the 'stickiness' of a site than its raw traffic (measured in unique visitors and page views). Here at TaxProf Blog is a ranking of the 'stickiest' law prof blogs. (Via Legal Insurrection.) Ladder Man will no doubt gnash his teeth over the fact that Volokh Conspiracy is in the number one slot handily beating out his two blogs. It comes as no surprise that Instapundit is first in traffic but last in 'stickiness.'
Why is Ladder Man so-called? Because he is a status-obsessed careerist, a social climber, given to ranking things. You won't find much by way of content at his academic gossip site.
