As is customary and traditional, we celebrate every new 1,000 members here and share the traffic stats. This time it's 28,000!
There were 1.4 million page views this month, tied for our record. It took us just 27 days to get this latest 1,000 members--we're averaging about one new member every 38 minutes.
Thanks as always to all the community members who make this growth possible, and especially the moderators who approve membership applications and blog posts and otherwise answer questions and keep things ticking here. We've got about 60 moderators now, but if anyone would like to join this group, please PM me. If you've been here for a while and have been participating, you'll fit in great.

I go for Thousand Copter powered by cold fusion ;)
Congratulations to us all, what a great community! By memebr number 1 000 000 it'll be a fully recyclable, eatable eco-copter powered by nothing but good intentions (which as we all know comes from chocolate pudding)
Maxime: By then it will be a holocopter ;-) But yes, we should plan some nice surprise for 50,000, 100,000 etc.
I always wonder how those "other" 25 visits came to be ...
