I’m kind of curious… How large is the Micro.blog community? Or the micro pub community at large? /cc @man

Manton hasn’t released any numbers yet, so we use the “Philpin Number”—@JohnPhilpin is famous for following just about everyone he comes across, so we periodically look and see what his “Following N users you aren’t following” is (it needs a multiplier, certainly, though I don’t know what the right one might be).

Yeah, seems like the @-mentions need to have a leading space or start-of-line before them….
James Mills
@smokey oh I didn’t notice the lack of space ha ha I guess the parser must require the leading space
Smokey Ardisson
Yeah, I don’t think it always used to, so it’s tripping me up :-)

Hrm, you’ve been pretty active the last couple of days, so he may have already found you (and we’ll need to subtract that extra 1 I added)!
