Isn't that right around the time, someone posted a review of Windows 7 build 6 or something?

A forum thread about exploding hard drives (or something to that extent) created by Marshalus made it onto the Digg front page on February 28th, 2008. Conclusion: If you want to top the 'Most users online' number, post something digg-worthy, submit it and hope.

Congratulations to both Neowin for its number of members and Manav to be that special number.

Manav been waiting for this dude to post in this thread for hours but he hasn't posted anywhere.

Or alternatively, make a network of at least 100 Neowin users on Digg. That would certainly make it easier for all Neowin content to get noticed on Digg.

Digg V4 will also help with that. You submit or digg stories up and all your friends will see it. If a lot of Neowin people sign up and are actually active on the site, more stories will likely be seen by others. So yeah, do it.

[Deacon Brown]

So the new member that caused this thread still has not posted

I still believe he is a real person and not a bot, and is a little scared because all this expectaion is on his shoulders to make his 1st post something Front page news worthy!

No pressure!!

Seems like an Indian name to me. As far as manav is concerned, may be the admins could email him and get him here, so that this thread doesn't end in disappointment.

Hopefully he doesn't take as long as you to make his first post :p

Now how many of those accounts are actually active on the site / forums :whistle: :shiftyninja:

Yes I would love to see that many active users.
