Hey Ryan, this is just a random question with no real importance.

I've always wondered about the "Reads" part of a listing. When an article shows that it has been read 52 times, does that mean the link has been clicked 52 times, the "Read On" for the comments section has been clicked 52 times, or both combined?

It's the number of times someone has clicked on the link that leads to the original post.
