Well I had a full-day interview yesterday. It overall went very well (1 hour presentation, 30 minute meetings with different team members for the rest of the day except for lunch with a group).

The only things that I think I tripped up on is the HR rep and Hiring manager both asked me my status on applying elsewhere, and I stammered a bit and ended up saying I was still applying for positions that looked like a good fit, and recovered when with the hiring manager by saying I had a nice visit with the team and think it would be a great fit etc.

I did forget to ask what their timeline was for making a decision and in my thank you email to the hiring manager the next day asked, and was told 'in the next month or so'. I also wrote personal thank-you emails to all the people I met with based on his suggestion (I didn't get any business cards back when I gave mine, but he told me the email address system) so I did do one for each, personalized with something relevant to each personal conversation I had.

I had also asked when would he like me to contact him to follow up, and he didn't respond to that part. Should I do so in 2 weeks or 3-4?

Well, time to wait for up to a month. I was hoping for a quick offer and being able to stop searching for new jobs because I really like this one.

A month isn't so long. I've waited 2+. Keep applying elsewhere and follow up in 3 weeks.

Sounds like a plan, thanks.
