FreshBooks Hits 70,000 Users… and some random facts about the number 7
The FreshBooks user count has surpassed the 70,000 mark and is on a steady climb. It only seems like yesterday, since i’ve updated the user count ribbon.
I couldn’t dig up too much on the number “70,000″, but here are some interesting facts on the number “7″ (ya I know, it’s not 70,000 but close enough):
- 7 is the fourth prime number
- 7 is our magic number in web design (i.e. no more than 7 main navigation tabs at the top)
- 7 is the atomic number for nitrogen
- Seven is character from Star Trek Voyager. Seven of Nine, Tertiary Adjunct of Unimatrix Zero-One is a human liberated from the Borg collective
- 7 x 13 + 2 is the number of people that Jack Bauer has killed in 96 hours of 24.

Congrats on a milestone. How many of those 70,000 user accounts login regularly though?

Richard – thanks for asking!
We are lucky to have many of those 70,000 as active users (that is what we call people who log in regularly). Looks like your SlimTimer launch has been going really well – congratulations!
I have a project going that may be of interest to you. I am collecting aggregate data from web services providers (like you) in hopes that we can establish some metrics for prospective entrepreneurs and the web services industry as a whole. It would be great if you chose to participate. It’s 100% confidential (data will be aggregate only). Shoot me a note if you are willing to participate. Use this link, with subject “Attention Mike”:
