Default Users stats - age,location,etc

Just wondering if anyone here tracks user information such as:
  • Screen widthxheight
  • Location
  • Gender
  • Age
  • Income
  • Whatever else you can think of

If so how do you do it? I figure the location can be done by ip address, but the other stuff would have to be input by the user. If you do collect this info, How do you do it?

Thanks

For the other fields like age and gender etc. you'd need to have those fields available on profiles like forum software has but I guess it would be impossible track that info on guests.

Correct, unless it is direct intput you will never get that info.

If you do put up page asking for this nfo, I really dont know the response you will get.

I guess it depends on the site. But someone who is willing to join an arcade is usually more likely to return to that site maybe? I'd like to see more features on profiles for arcade scripts. Profile sites like myspace and bebo are popular and offering more profile features to do or check on gives them more reason to return to a site, I think.
