Hi All, I'm wondering if anyone had any interesting data to share from a networking perspective around the referendum.
Just some ideas (most eyeball networks like us are only graphing traffic volume); - Did you see an increased/decreased level to/from social media sites over your peering and transit pipes compared to the previous Thursdays? - Did you see any change in evels over these days following the referendum to social media sites compared to previous weeks (that doesn't look Euro championship related) ? - Did you see an increased level of traffic to/from news sites on the day, over the following days? If you're tracking DNS hits HTTP/S etc, see all questions above but for number of hits/lookups instead of traffic volumes. It would be interesting if someone could present a talk on any interesting stats related to the referendum from the networking world, I hope that some of the key players involed in delivering the Euros will be when it's over (broadcasters, CDNs, carriers, social networking providers etc). It could make for an interesting lightening talk. We haven't seen anything notable in our traffic levels (which I think mostly relates to our customer demographic, most public sector so mostly only working during the day and the majority of the offices are empty at the weekends). Kind regards, James.
