Months ago when it stood at 50,000 I said in here that it was going towards a million. I said “a year or two”, which now turns out to be utter nonesense. It’ll happen much faster than that. Congrats!
I used to have a ‘browsing cycle’, but then I set up a bunch of cron jobs so that I can syndicate static HTML pages and only see changes (once they happen) in my Desktop. The instructions are here in case you are interested: http://www.schestowitz.com/Software/Syndication/
Three of those were mine.
That’s okay Andrew because I just downloaded it once for my three blogs. So we’re even.

Hahaha, cool! We are getting there!
off to go download WP 830 times
– congrats Matt
5 of those were mine!
I just so happened to follow the link to be told it had been downloaded 499,499 times. The numeric pattern delighted me so much, I took a screenshot.
You’ll probably get a thousand of these in your inbox, but here you go:

Most likely yes, because I was going to post something similar.
it is half a million now.
Congratulations Matt and the team!
Eric,
Funny… the exact same thing happened to me… and I took a screenshot too!
Congratulations, Matt. That’s a real tribute to the appeal of a platform that just keeps getting more powerful and easier to use.

Congratulations!
Wow! Half a million!
(Say, is there an RSS Feed for the counter, Matt?)
Congrats on half a million, Matt! (I’m a b2/b2evo convert and have been *very* impressed with Strayhorn; looking forward to 1.6!)
On a separate note, you might want to check out your gallery. It’s not working for me…
Yeah, like 5 of those are mine, I have 3 blogs and I had to find some old files before hehe.
I still remember back in the day…heh, like that was so long ago…when we were breaking just 100,000 =)

Roy, I understand what your script does, but how do I use it?

if you use Windows, you might need to run Cygwin.
