Mining Data on Active Rain

By Cheryl Johnson

March 25, 2009 11:18 PM

Yesterday, while chatting with Maureen McCabe here I learned a couple things about finding member data on Active Rain.

Did you know you could browse through top members by the year, month and day they joined?

Check this out: http://activerain.com/roster/2006

Or you can look up how many members joined on any given day?

http://activerain.com/action/agents/new_users/2006/6/29

What I'd love to do and haven't hit on the formula yet, is see the list of all blogs posted on any given day.

I tried

http://activerain.com/blogs/2006/7/21 and

http://activerain.com/blogsview/2006/7/21 and

http://activerain.com/new_blogs/2006/7/21

But none of those work. Anyone know the answer to the puzzle?

Oh, and here's the very first day that anyone ever joined Active Rain:

Day Zero, if you will. :-)

Yes, I really do have other things to do, but this is my relaxation therapy. :-)

P.S. JORGEN HAHN if you are reading this, a "search by date posted" search tool would be a cool little thingy to add. Nobody else might care about it, but it would still be cool. :-)

thanks for the mention on post number 1002944 Ms. Johnson.

I joined July 25, 2009 same day as Sarah Cooper and Eileen Landau! Scott Daniels joined after me a day or two and obviously stayed and played because he was a fixture when I joined came back and got involved. I came back to play after Ann Cummings and Eileen Landau asked me to "associate."

Blogs by day would be interesting. My lazy brain is not about to even try to figure out that puzzle....

It's funny when you see people who joined in 2006 but did not become active until much later.

Samantha,

Try this

http://activerain.com/action/nav/show_featured/Real%20Estate%20Brokerage for Brokerages

http://activerain.com/action/nav/show_featured/Real%20Estate%20Agent for Agents

Clicking "All" seems to be a dead end.

Too much fun! I just found out that I'm in the top spot on my day...12/27/07. How cool! I wouldn't have known if not for your post, thanks!

Mar 27, 2009 05:56 AM

@All ... Yes, this is fun!!

Mar 27, 2009 06:51 AM

Thanks Cheryl, that worked great! Hey Maureen- you're #10!! Congrats :)

Mar 27, 2009 06:56 AM

only agents if you add the two lists together (what the All used to do and I used to watch) I am number 12. Who swooped ahead and how...

Mar 27, 2009 07:12 AM

not that I pay attention to stuff like that... ;- )

Mar 27, 2009 07:13 AM

I'm number #9 Brokerage. :-)

But .... I want my ALL back!

Mar 27, 2009 07:55 AM

why would the all be gone? I know it was never prominant and I do thank you for digging the brokerage and agent up... and I don't know why an ALL really matters but there are lenders etc. too...

Mar 27, 2009 08:19 AM

All is still there, but when you click on it, all you get is the list of Active Rain sponsor icons.

This is kinda fun to browse Cheryl. Especially intrigued by those first pioneers that joined the network in 2005. Looks like most of them dropped out of blogging. It would have been hard to envision how large the network would become over time...

Mar 28, 2009 08:33 AM

In 2005 wasn't it a totally different venture? Not a network, no blogs. It was a lead generator and contact management?

Mar 28, 2009 10:56 AM

Day One as far as Members signing up appears to be May 25, 2006 http://activerain.com/roster/2006/5/25

(Maybe Lola meant 2006, and 2005 was just a typo)

Mar 28, 2009 11:56 AM

it looks like everyone from the 2006 year list is still pretty active///

2007 list look at Jeff Wilhems - agent toolbox
