#MSIgnite 2015 on Twitter

It has been a noisy week in Social Media with #MSIgnite. Such a large conference as Microsoft Ignite (see here) produces a lot of traffic in Social Media. We made some Twitter reports to deliver some impressions about MSIgnite.

The following statistics was created by searching for hashtag #MSIgnite.

Overview

Since 2nd of May till now (10th May) there have been almost 109.000 tweets sent by almost 17.000 Twitter users. With 53% about half of the messages have been retweeted.

As expected the day with most tweets has been the first conference day, Monday the 4th of May with 37.582 tweets - most of them during the keynote. Tuesday had 20.893 tweets, Wednesday had 18.741 tweets, Thursday 17.002 and Friday 6.582 (actually this was just half a conference day).

Remarkably also the Sunday before the conference had 5.259 tweets, it seems that many attendees used twitter also for organizing themselves around the conference.

Of course we from atwork, @magrom and @atwork tweeted a lot, but didn't make it in the Top Messengers. Zwinkerndes Smiley

Twitter users reached

I guess with Tweets there have been millions of users reached.
Just the Top 5 messengers have reached about 75.000 followers.

Doing the math and assuming that each messenger has, let's say about 300 followers (and I know many colleagues who have thousands and more..)

#MSIgnite should have reached at least more than 5 million users!

And I think in reality this number can easily be doubled or multiplied.

Locations

On a world map the home locations of the twitter users looks like this.

The region around Chicago as well as the East and West Coast were the "hot spots".

Summary

The numbers are impressive, we see the scale of this huge MSIgnite conference. This statistics has been created with PlusOneSocial.
