Or you could pick another day!
Nope, why pick another day when you think it'll be the day after christmas? I'm not going to lie!


besides, great minds think alike...

I agree. When I got mine last Christmas, it took me a while to get into MR and actually register. That's why I went for early in the new year.

I registered in 4 days, but then again I had been quasi lurking for a couple of weeks. I found, as I was comparing the Kindle vs the Nook, that just about every question I had was answered in some way or another, here -- and that the answers were usually correct. I also learned a few things I didn't even know I wanted to know.

I think we'll have to wait until somewhere in February, unless some users are artificially boosting up the members...

The 150,000th member will join on January the sixth, 2012. He will be from Norway but believe himself to be the Kaiser of Germany and attempt to make MobileRead the center of the new Holy Roman Empire. His User Name will be "Emperor Danny".

I'm disappointed... We really need to make MobileRead known better. We should have passed the 150.000 by at least a few thousand after christmas!
