This morning we passed 10,000 forums

We all had a bet around the team when we would hit 10,000, and we beat every one of our guesstimates by a few days.

Sam was the closest, so we all owe him a pint of beer.

Andrew has been working on a nifty little visualization of forum activity.  Click the image to see it full size.

  • Each arc is a forum.  It arcs from its creation to its last real post to date.  Top vs. bottom arcs don’t mean anything, it’s just so they all fit.
  • Arc height is proportional to the number of posts.
  • Arc width is proportional to the number of members.
  • Green circles are the start of forums, red circles indicate the last post date.

Full size.
