Woodward, Goofers..
you make feel a little bad re: my 'bragging" about FBFK ;-) @ 22974 right now !!!
I'm just starting this little topic for all to come moan about their 50 - 100 userbase ;-(
NOW: SERIOUS STUFF::=
There are many theories on how to attract a large userbase to a social networking website. I bellieve that FBFK's "success" is a coincidence, a social black hole that was filled up initially purely accidently to keep MJ's 5-yr old off the other FB !!.. if you could only read how MJ has explained privately to me.. about how FBFK started...
Have a read thru these --
Much good reading, esp the second one by Ben from a while back, before he left Elgg.com
My small points are that a Social Network will not attract a userbase just because I have created it using Elgg (or whatever) as a super-duper pkg with oodles of neat plugins !!! A social networking site will only be "successfull" when it satisfies a certain "hunger" people have for "something" on the internet. And that hunger is *not to simply be a user on an Elgg (or other) SocNet web-site.
That hunger is a far more personal and human psychology factor. Why do we go to bars ? Why do we join Tennis Clubs ? Why do we join dance clubs ? Why did we join this Elgg community ? Humans need to communicate their thoughts, feelings, sometime just have a need to to another human person...
Am I making this too heavy and academic ?
A successful social web site depends on a lot of **human factors, not just software and plugins alone.. That is one reason there are so many $5 hosting accounts owned by those who think they will be the next Facebook or Myspace, while the hosts are making $5 x NNNNN per month ;-)

~1000 per 5 days
14 days until Aug 31st
approx +3000 ( linear progression ) more = 27,000
give the calculations the traditional ( geometric progression ) exponential function factor....
and...?
A ha, You are not factoring in a few things. There can be mitigating circumstances Also Be aware the summer holidays are coming to a close, a lot of kids are going back to school in the UK this week and next.
I'll stand by my 26,000 prediction. at 26k that's 1k additional in Aug over July a linear progression of that gives 250,000 at the end of 2010
mind you, my first progressions gave me 10,000 at the end of 2009 and we hit that at the end of march. It tends to go in waves. I am expecting a Plato over the next 3 months and then a huge wallop at Xmas but I have been wrong before.
24015 ;) So the kids are going back to school.. and then they wil tell all their friends about this cool new social site FBFkids.com which they found during the holdays...where they can get in even after being banned ;) and then all those friends will be in a hurry to get back home to sign-up just to prove your numbers wrong lolz ;-)
We will see big D
