GBPC

The Great Backyard Plone Count is a shameless copy of the Great Backyard Bird Count

(http://www.birdsource.org/gbbc -- a Plone site).

Just as GBBC is an effort by the Audubon Society and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to track birds, GBPC is an effort to catalog Plone sites worldwide.

Its a voluntary, self-reporting project (with all the weaknesses that go along with it) that attempts to find as many Plone sites as possible, including intranet sites behind firewalls.

How does the number and types of Plone sites compare with past years?

How are other applications, especially CMSs, affecting Plone sites in different application domains as well as geographical regions?

What kinds of differences in Plone diversity are apparent in various domains and usage areas?

Are any types of Plone sites undergoing worrisome declines that point to the need for attention?

Count Plone sites anywhere for as little or as long as you wish during the four-day period

(February 12-15, 2010)

Tally the site name, URL, and other statistics.
