I’ll follow along with the exploits of Alan, D’Arcy, and Jim by posting my top 10 commenters over the last year. Clearly those guys get more comments than I do, but it is nice to see that we (for the most part) appear on each others’ list — Sorry Rev, I will get better this year. The thing I notice about this list is how local it is to State College and Penn State in general. On my list there are only four people who are not PSU folks — I just find it interesting. At any rate, there it is. 222 different people left comments this past year and I can tell you that is plenty to keep me happy! Sort of blows my mind when I think about it. A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to share your voice in 2008!

Oh I just needed 5 more to be on that list 🙁
Adding that to my new (or current) year’s resolution(s)!

One thing I’ve noticed about my own list is how NOT local it is. Only 1 person from Calgary showed up, and they are an ex-student (now alumn) of the U of C.
Cole,
If you had trackbacks included as well I’m sure I would be number 1, because I have been liberally stealing your ideas for at least a year 😉
Looks like I have some work to do on the campelese commenting side as well. Here’s to 2009, the year when PSU, UMW, UBC, and U Calgary change the world!
What is this?

See, you’re coming around to this game thing finally, just from a different direction 🙂
@ D’Arcy Norman Funny how much the idea of local community has played out here at PSU. Its been really amazing watching it coalesce and grow over the last 2-3 years. To tell you the truth it is one of the few things that keeps me on Twitter — the local twittersphere at PSU is really alive and lots of conversations start there. I wonder why there is such a difference in local vs non-local participation between our Institutions?
@ Jim I had a hard time believing the numbers from top to bottom, but how despicable is it that I didn’t even make your list! I will not be stopped this year, however!
@ Bart Reminds me of the point system we did with PGSIT that one year … I think we called it the leader board. Drove kids crazy seeing their teams running behind others!
