A big thank you to everyone that participated and helped out with Hej! 2007. It was a huge success. Proud to have worked with a good bunch of people.

Here are some basic statistics I have compiled when my boss wasn’t looking . Eric has blogged about some of it already.

• Added: Did one of the co founders of Flickr really pop by in our Hej! backchannel?
• Added: There were way more Macs than PCs
• Added: LinkedIn was a very crucial research and communication tool. I sent 98 LinkedIn invitations with around 70-75% acceptance rate. Among others, LinkedIn was used for:
  • Connecting to potential speaker
  • Researching participant/speaker background
  • Identifying relevant participants and companies
  • First invitation to meet and discuss Hej! 2007 was sent to Eric on 15th of February via Alf
• Total number of posts in Hej! Onelinr = 1129 ( of which 10 were images and 46 were links)
• This means = 6 hour conference, 188 posts an hour, 3 posts a minute -> Strange as one would assume that there were many more posts per minute. Not considering the lunch break takes it to around 3.75 posts a minute
• Total number of posts in Hej! Jaiku = 278 -> Expected because one needs to create an ID and sorta post responsibly
• Added: First Hej! blog post = March 3rd
• Added: Hej! 2007 Flickr group= 160 pictures
• Pre Hej! = 29 blog links to site ≈ 180-200k ranking
• Post Hej! = 43 blog links to site ≈ 103k ranking. I personally wanted to break the 100k blog ranking during Hej! preparation. =(
• Highest no. of visitors: 180 on 21st April, Hej! day. Lowest: 0 visitors on March 20 (site revamp?)
• Most incoming links in a day: IDG’s coverage of TestFreaks, 56 on April 22nd
• Edited: Number of different methods of information dissemination = 9 7 5 (LinkedIn, Onelinr, Jaiku, blogs, podcasts, flickr, videos, emails, press)
• Number of videos from Hej! Podesk = 37 worth 384 Mb
• Approx. number of bits of information in Onelinr ≈ 600kb
  • 50 8 bit-characters *1119
  • 10kb * 10 images

There is so much more interesting information out there. I already emailed the necessary people for the information. Let’s see what happens.

Edited: Thanks to Mattias, I have now added the number of pictures from our Flickr group and Jaiku/Onelinr as information dissemination tools.
