Today we cross the 1,000,000 registered users mark. In album sales that’s a platinum record, an apt analogy as we often talk about Motown, Subpop and being in a band in relation to what we do here at the Co-op. 43 Things began as an experiment between friends with less than 10 registered users before the design polish (thank you 37 Signals) was in place. We simultaneously built the site while wrestling with the ever unfolding riddle “What Do You Want To Do With Your Life?”. I feel my life is richer for simply having entertained the question and look forward to finding another 1,000,000 users that have a similar desire to find their way through the art of self-directed self-improvement amongst friends. Cheers!

43 Cheers for 43 Things!
(BTW, Your album label says April 28, 2008 instead of 2007…)
Shane (again) // April 27, 2007 at 3:54 pm |
Er, I mean… the label says April 27, 2008 – should be April 27, 2007…
Great, now you got me doing it
