The concept is pretty cool, but the target audience may be problematic. People must be tech savvy enough to be able to read and understand log files. But I don't think you can really compete with the power of a console with grep, so that may be where you get stuck.

Is it for web developers, sys admins, or regular joes with a website?

jd: the target audiences are two, people with a blog (it is very easy to get addicted to see visits in real time) and people that want seriously optimize the site structure, we have many users that reported that using lloogg to see how single users navigate their site resulted in changes that improved sells, registrations, and so on.

Btw note that even if the original idea comes from tail -f access.log the site is designed to show visits in order to be readable by non-tech people.

Thank you very much for your feedbacks.

p.s. About "grep" we are implementing filters to do similar things visually.
