Well if you don't get the top trending position these days, few notice what you're posting :-) That's the sad but honest truth about the current state of this network.

It's not surprising that the usability, design, content structure etc. was the second most critized point here.

Regarding the question for Paula: it seems that we're 56-58,000 active users transacting currently (see daily stats from @penguinpablo). I was referring to those as active users. Maybe we should consider those that were active during the past 2 months?

I think it would be incredibly interesting to know how many of them are old vs. new. That would say a LOT about the retention rate and engagement level in relation to life span. Don't you think? :-)
