Fewer than 10,500 users have posted at least one article here. I wonder how many of those were relegated to purgatory and are still being counted.

"...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001The number is around 9,500 authors with legit articles. 9,500 people have posted an article here. I think that's a stunning number of authors!

Chris, I would have one minor request... - Would it be possible to see number of downloads? I'm sure some will find this useful with the rating.
1. I will develop myself to the maximum of my potential in all ways 2. I will look for the good in all people and make them feel worthwhile. 3. If I have nothing good to say about a person, I will say nothing. 4. I will always be as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own. 5. I will always remain loyal to God, my country, family and my friends - Chuck Norris

Yeah, I started clicking on the one-article authors and most of them came up with 0 articles being found. And admittedly, 9500 article authors is an impressive number, but when you compare that to the number of registered users, it is a mere drop in a really huge bucket.

The sifting still needs to be done.

perhaps it's time to pen key an article. only the thing i'd write is on is this big ole inventory management system im building which really...isn't all that awesome, it's just completley dynamic...but maybe someone would use it... i even thought about calling it an "Inventory and Booking System" IBS ;P no i have no idea why that got voted 1...too bad we can't see who did it ;P

Some of us do the decent thing and don't write (crap) articles, this is a blessing for you guys who need to vet them.

I haven't written an article yet, or even posted a message until this one, as I haven't had anything useful to add. Maybe once I write some software that hasn't already got a mountain of (good) information on the subject... until then I'll stay in the shadows.

I never said I wanted more. I was just illustrating the difference between the number of people posting articles, and the number of registered users. Just 0.002 percent of the population have submitted articles.

"...the staggering layers of obscenity in your statement make it a work of art on so many levels." - Jason Jystad, 10/26/2001Now knock it down for the number of competant authors (add a couple of 0s in front of the 2) and you probably have a fair estimation of the author/population ratio. You seem to assume that a fair % of people can write articles, I would strongly disagree, writing is an art and that includes technical writing (maybe especially). Nope I'll stay out here as a fluffy lurker thank you.
