 <title>Rootscamp DC Recap: Twitters, Reviews, and Lessons Learned</title>
 <link>http://www.managingnews.com/blog/2008/apr/18/rootscamp-dc-recap-twitters-reviews-and-lessons-learned</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;This morning I finally had some time to look at what people were saying about &lt;a href=&quot;http://dc.rootscamp.org/index.php/Main_Page&quot;&gt;Rootscamp DC&lt;/a&gt; on the blogosphere (and &lt;a href=&quot;http://dc.rootscamp.org/index.php/Main_Page&quot;&gt;Twittersphere&lt;/a&gt;, of course). Last week before the conference got underway, I had set up a group on Managing News to track all mentions of Rootscamp happening online, so I just went there to see what news had come in. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.flickr.com/photos/ericgundersen/2435361886/&quot; title=&quot;RootsCamp DC by ericgundersen, on Flickr&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2052/2435361886_1fd05cc0fb.jpg&quot; width=&quot;500&quot; height=&quot;333&quot; alt=&quot;RootsCamp DC&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I noticed a few interesting things about the coverage:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;About half of all the mentions of Rootscamp were on Twitter. This makes sense since Twitter tends to pick up users and twittering frequency around conferences and it was one of the hottest tools discussed in the sessions I went to. But that makes me a bit surprised it didn&#039;t amount to more of the coverage of Rootscamp. &lt;/li&gt;
