50,000 Active Users
by James "njan" Eaton-LeeHowdy, folks! At 19:40 UTC+1 today, freenode reached 50,000 active users online, which is a record for us!
Freenode reached 40,000 users a little over a year ago, so we’re really going from strength to strength! Thanks to all of you who’ve helped us build our community over the last year, and we’d like to invite you to #defocus to help us celebrate.

10,000 new users means a lot. I hope we can keep it going in the right direction.
