title = "Analysing User Lifetime in Voluntary Online Collaboration",
abstract = "This paper analyses persuasion in online collaboration projects. It introduces a set of heuristics that can be applied to such projects and combines these with a quantitative analysis of user activity over time. Two example sites are studies, Open Street Map and The Pirate Bay. Results show that there is a correspondance between some features of site design and user participation patterns in the projects.",
