ArtBabble officially launched in the IMA Davis LAB one month ago today. We have been attentively watching the invites that have been sent and accepted since that time. To date, almost exactly one out of every three invites has been accepted. Without a baseline it’s hard to say whether this is good or bad, but hey… we’ll take it. A few days ago, Daniel posted a chart showing the number of new users per day on ArtBabble. I would like to share some visualizations of the invites as of this morning.
You can click on any of the graphs to get a larger view. The points in the graph are all ArtBabble users. The lines between the points represent an invite that was sent. The top point in this graph represents a fake user, “ArtBabble”, that has “invited” all the first tier of users. The blue lines represent these pseudo-invites. The red lines represent an invite that was sent and has not yet been accepted. Finally, the green lines represent an invite that was sent and accepted. This graph also lets us easily see that the longest invite chain included six people.
