in Collok.com Manages Your OpenWorld Schedule on Oracle AppsLab
Will definitely take a look. As an aside, the regular OW schedule builder app is absolutely horrendous - given all the great tools and smart UI people that Oracle has, it's a real shame. I know it's outsourced, but I bet tons of big-5 or isv partners would have actually payed oracle to let them write them a much better app, on the Oracle stack, provided they could plaster their logo all over it.
Oracle had a captive audience of 40,000+ attendees, what a way to MISS a chance to excite them with a real hands-on experience

in Even More Fun with Numbers on Oracle AppsLab
Especially in the context of "ENTERPRISE 2.0" you've left off the truly meaningful stats. Things like:
"what got done" -how many ideas got implemented?
"how much money did we make/save" - are there any ideas that have been turned into new products/revenue? did you make this a faster/cheaper way to get things into the official ER system, or did you add work to monitor two systems?
"customer satisfaction" - do people have a better image of the company now and feel more connected to product development? are they more likely to recommend Oracle products and services?
By only focusing on usage data and input volumes it propagates the negative connotation that a lot of people have (though I DON'T agree) about Enterprise 2.0 tech, which is "yes it will be very popular, lots of stuff will go in, but we'll get nothing usable out of it". Remember, Enterprise 2.0 is still about RESULTS, not popularity.

You won't catch me calling Mix Enterprise 2.0, and I don't really think it is. Mix is Web 2.0 and targeted at Oracle consumers.
That said, I don't have the metrics you mention, although it would rock if I could get them. We're planning to add features to track the lifecycle of ideas, which I hope will help with adoption.
2.0 of all kinds is slowly gaining momentum, but it's not mainstream. So, adoption is hard to track. Some teams use Mix a lot for all kinds of community activity, but many don't even know it exists and probably won't jump in wholesale even when the hear about it.
Check back in six months, and maybe we'll have those metrics. Assuming we're still here :)

Maybe next year, after all, the OOW social experience was through a third party in 06, 07, and this year it's through Mix. These things take time.
