by the numbers

We've been seeing a lot of posts (and hearing from folks) that people feel like they're falling behind. Here are some quickly-compiled stats from the children's desk on a rainy Saturday:

42 percent of registered participants have not done anything beyond setting up their blogs and making initial test posts.

Less than 5 percent of registered participants are "up-to-date" (or have completed 12 Things).

The median number of Things completed is 5.

The average number of Things completed is 6.45.

Further, 65 percent of people have made between 1 and 5 blog posts; 30 percent people have made between 6 and 10 blog posts; 5 percent of people have made 11 or more posts.

Even if you're not on Thing 12, you're not behind. You are simply moving at your own pace. Some Things will take more time than others. Stick with it!

The more active blogs include: Barb's Blog, Fun to Learn, Haydee's Space, Library Land, Library thoughts and musings, Newbie YA Librarian, The Queens Blogger, Sherwood Living Library, Stream of Consciousness, and Where does that leave you?


Use the above blogs to see examples and ask questions. Or, post them here. Tell us what you want tips about. You can also post questions to your own blogs. We try to read each of your posts.
