    Less than a year and half after our public launch, GitHub surpassed 100k users last night. Thanks to all for signing up, here’s a simple graph I whipped up courtesy of topfunky’s gruff library.

    I like how the Y-axis starts at 2. 0 is just too boring, I guess. (Also, no label on the X axis?)

    Yeah, that's really kind of dishonest when the bottom of the chart isn't at 0

    You can really experience the amount of users using GitHub :/

    Amount of users or number of accounts?

    Yes, we need more info on the X-axis.

    @mhinze the number of users is the number of accounts. If you're referring to the number of committers across every repository, we don't keep stats on that, but it would be a much higher number than 100k.

    Why does it always have to be exponential? Why don't people brag about their S-curve?
