3,000,000 searches, MR!

[realityisterror]

People often post milestones here, so here's another one to add to the list.

Around 7:30PM EDT, MR had it's 3000000th search.
And, yes, I'll admit I made most of the last 50 or so.
FWIW, in the past 15 minutes, we've added another 86 or so.

I would estimate that about 80+% of those are from people (like me) that habitually click 'New Posts' 100 times a day!

[eva01]

I barely ever search here. Because it never works for what i am searching for. Server times out

I click 'New Posts' only 50 times a day .

God. Imagine if people actually used the search function. We'd be at 10 mil., easy.

What are the numbers on mroogle, edesign?

 

[njmac]

Glad to do my part. I hit the New Posts button about 50 times a day too.

 

[treblah]

Glad to do my part. I hit the New Posts button about 50 times a day too.

I only hit it ~20 times a day.

2 years and 5ish months x 20 a day = ~17,600 from me!

I click 'New Posts' only 50 times a day .

Around the same for me

That's more than Google has had in its entire history!

Oh wait, I missed a decimal point. Make that more than Google has had since this thread started!

But good for MacRumors anyway.

I don't know if it's just me and I'm in a particularly jovial mood, but it seems there are less threads in the troubleshooting forums that are blatant double-ups. In other words, people seem to be searching before posting their problems more often now, which is terribly cool.

 

[thomasp]

*Can't help but notice that there have been more searches than posts*

See, some of us do search rather than post without searching

How very Doctor Q of you!

Oh yeah, I'm always knocking up charts and tables and what not

It's an automatically generated thing! "MathML" :p

But that means you can't spa...I mean help them all out as much.

 

[mad jew]

Yeah, it's getting lonely in there. I'll have to start punching holes in my own Macs and asking whether AppleCare covers me...

Not that I even have AppleCare...

 

[kretzy]

AppleCare is so materialistic anyway.

 

[mad jew]

Yeah, it corrupts the mind and the soul.

Warranties are for wannabe fanboys!

 

[amacgenius]

Warranties are for wannabe fanboys!

Or people who saved $400 by having said warranty .

Anyways, congrats MR for that "milestone", I don't search too often...so.
