This baseline survey is looking at various learning areas that matter a lot to understand how KM4Dev brings value. It…

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…

 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…
