I am fairly new here at KB, Joining Dec. 23,2008 Therefore, I thought a review of the growth of this board may help to understand the small server problems we are having at this time.
11/2007 started with 10 members
9/08 membership had grown to 35
10/08 242 new members
11/08 573 new members
12/08 525 new members
1/09 416 new members
2/09 689 new members
3/09 273 new members ( so far!)
As you can see, there has been tremendous growth in the membership here in the last 6 months, Resulting in addition posts, topics, pictures,etc.
While we are being moved around to better equipment, We need to remember that all of this happened in a short while, and things will be even better very shortly.
Information from KindleBoards statistics center
edit. Mods, feel free to move this to wherever it seems more appropriate.

Holy cow, in 9/08 KB had 35 members. I never would have guessed. My congratulations to Leslie, Harvey, and all of you who pushed and prodded this board forward. A fantastic job. You should all be proud and receive much acclaim.

^ Yeah, and most of those 35 were me and my family members. Fortunately in October 2008, Leslie had a vision (hallucination?) that something special could be built here. And then, she done done it. |

Thank you, Steve. I appreciate your kind words! I will say, when I joined back in April, Harvey was very welcoming and great. The trouble is...the place was sort of quiet. It's hard to sustain a forum on 10 or 20 messages a day. Then, in October, the climate changed...LOL L |

I have never been able to wink, but I love men who can. L Advanced winking was my college major; minored in the mischievous smirk. Never try both at the same time though, trust me--you'll hear something along the lines of, "Oh my God! Somebody call 911--that man is having a stroke!" |

I'm glad to see so much new blood here. It's amazing how quickly this place has grown in the last few months. I have a feeling the board will continue to grow as Kindle adoption rates increase. |

I was one of the November group. Like most of us, I saw Leslie's "spam" on the Amazon boards and decided to give this place a try. Haven't looked back since. It's wonderful.

I'm November as well and Leslie's patient answers lured me over as well. Thank you Leslie. |
