From the page
Saved with the link. Notes from 2007 to 2016 are mostly the page's own words, so this is probably an excerpt.
As an update to last year’s post:
Toni Schneider — 1,052 Maya Desai — 826 Mom — 659 Raanan Bar-Cohen — 452 Donncha O Caoimh — 424 Barry Abrahamson — 386 Mark Riley — 222 Jane Wells — 218 Ryan Boren — 200 Andrew Ozz — 197 Matt Thomas — 193 Liz Danzico — 148 Mike Hirshland — 144 Heather Rasley — 139 Joseph Scott — 129
I’ve expanded the list to 15. A lot of the same folks at the very top, but new faces in Liz and Jane from 2.5 and 2.7 usability cycles. Also three people on the list have changed their domain in the past year, just like I did. It must have been a year for that.
Also for fun here are some yearly posting stats courtesy of Alex’s queries:
Posts Avg. Words Total Words Avg. Comments Total Comments
2002 360 139 50,190 1 390
2003 429 168 72,359 3 1,287
2004 990 54 54,257 6 6,236
2005 624 48 30,090 9 5,963
2006 313 70 22,010 11 3,503
2007 334 60 20,267 17 5,919
2008 302 50 15,206 21 6,493
As you can see I’m doing fewer posts with fewer words than ever, but getting more comments. At this rate I’ll be down to 40 words per post next year. Yay brevity.
Working on collating some travel / WordCamp stats.
