I have 3 questions...
1) Approximately how many instructables are there as of 2011?
2) How many authors are there as of 2011?
3)What is the percentage of instructables that get featured? I think its about 20% or something...

PDF Downloads
As a Pro member, you will gain access to download any Instructable in the PDF format.
You also have the ability to customize your PDF download.
2) Like Kiteman said maybe about 10000, you can probably run a script like Jayfuu does with the view counts to see how many members have 1 or more posted instructables
3)As of 12:20 pm Sept 4: 12768 featured out of 58208= 21.9%
2. Less than 50,000 (I'm going to guess around 10,000)
3. I don't know if anybody has ever run the numbers on that one. Interesting question.
58184 (searchable, the Flagged-crap isn't included)
