A Response Comparison of the Main Discussion Group and the SA-GE
In this post I was going to take a deeper look at the Main Discussion Group network, with a particular emphasis on the internal Escort and Expediter Groups. However I’ve decided to do a response comparison of the Main Discussion Group and SA-GE because its quite interesting. However, first I want to show a time comparison.The graphs below provide time comparisons between the SA-GE and Main Discussion Group. Note the monthly posting pattern is quite different. Perhaps it reflects a northern…See More

Gloor’s Contribution Index Applied
It’s been three weeks since I last posted. In that time I have completed the Main Discussion Group analysis and an analysis of SA-GE, so expect a flurry of posts in the coming days. Two posts ago I…See More
"Hullo Sophie,
Thank you for your comment. I will post some of the results in the next day or so. Last night I completed the early analysis of SAGE, so now the discussion group and one of the sub-groups are complete.
Regards Graham"
"Hullo Riff,
Thank you for your comments and the numbers. It is always nice to have a deduction confirmed. I will be posting some of the results in the next day or so.
Regards Graham"
Riff Fullan commented on Graham Durant-Law's blog post 'Data Cleansing, “Role Types”, the Main Discussion Group'"Hi Graham,
Your SNA work on the KM4Dev community is fascinating, alright! On the size of the community, it is of course a difficult question, partly because there are three (more or less) linked communities: km4dev, SA-GE (Francophone) and Siwa…"
Sophie Alvarez commented on Graham Durant-Law's blog post 'The Purpose of the KM4Dev SNA'"Some of us will want more about HyperEdge’s own proprietary tool :) Thanks for the impromptu recommendation of tools. And... don't forget to post some of your initial drawings- some of them are standalone art pieces :)"
"Hi Jaap,
Thanks for your insights.
Regards Graham"
Jaap Pels commented on Graham Durant-Law's blog post 'A Temporal Analysis of the KM4Dev Main Discussion Group'"Hi Graham,
I poked and peaked a bit in my KM4Dev-Gmail archive and around 2007 I found a remarkable amount of post around using technology on KM/KS. This would need a better analysis though.... I know Nancy White made a KM4Dev-time-line last year in…"
"Hullo Jaap,
Thank you for the feedback and thoughts. It's nice to engage with someone from the community, because ultimately it's the community who provide context and make sense of inherent complexity. Can you tell me more about the Web…"
Jaap Pels commented on Graham Durant-Law's blog post 'A Temporal Analysis of the KM4Dev Main Discussion Group'"Hello Graham
Interesting readings!
My guess for 2008 / 11 peaking would be the upcoming web 2.0 tools that have been discussed within the KM4Dev community.
As for the 10 to 2 hour peak I guess it is biased by the Northerns hemisphere…"

Dunbar’s and Wellman’s Numbers
In my previous post I provided a temporal analysis of the main discussion group. I also said activity might have peaked because of Dunbar’s Numbers. What are Dunbar’s Numbers I hear you say?
Professor Robin Dunbar has researched the size and structure of human…

A Temporal Analysis of the KM4Dev Main Discussion Group
In my previous post I provided some detail on the data cleansing and manipulation steps that precedes the SNA. (I’ll provide the detailed steps in an annex to the report.) In this post I will provide an early temporal analysis. At this stage I still have not completed the detailed SNA, but I find these steps useful in understanding the dataset. Of necessity they require…
