Cracking 100,000 users

Geez, I had no idea. Once I get my research life under control (i.e. not in shambles), I guess I should go ahead and put (a) a combo-column, and (b) a donation button in Letterbox.

I hadn’t bothered to look at the Sparkle update logs in a while. I was surprised to see this:

[aaron@macbookpro] $ cat access_log-2008-03* | perl -ne ‘if (m/UUID=([A-Z0-9-]+)&/) { print “$1\n”; }’ | sort -u | wc -l 108833

i.e., there are 108,000 unique users of Letterbox out there! Hi, all! You are not forgotten! cheers, aaron

    hey, yeah, you’re letterbox is a great thing. i have a question though, i had it before and then threw it out and i want to use it again. i have downloaded it again, but when i doubleclick the file, the installprogram isn’t opened. i work on a MacBook and use OS 10.4.11 any idea what the problem could be? thanks a lot!!

    Me too! I double click the file and nothing happens. I’m running an Intel iMac with the latest tiger.
