The Science Lab held its second annual Global Sprint last week, to great success. Scientists, researchers, students, coders, librarians and the public from around the world collaborated on advancing open science in their communities. A few fact and figures from the event:

• Not only did we have around 30 sites join us from around the world, dozens more people participated remotely; check out the map of site hosts here:

• Twitter activity was huge during the Sprint – thanks to all who tweeted! We made a storify chronicling your tweets on the Sprint – check it out!
• With a little GitHub API magic, we pulled together some numbers on your hard work over the two days; here are the number of pull requests against all Sprint projects that listed a specific repo (code to reproduce both histograms is here)
• And for the projects that were more conversation based, here are the number of new issues opened and comments made.

Not only did over 100 pull requests get submitted, but tons of conversations, surveys and crowd-sourced data analysis got done. But most importantly, people around the world met new collaborators by getting together to work on open science common to us all. A huge Mozilla Science Lab thanks to everyone who participated – you did this!
