MindTouch reaches the first high mark

As they say, getting the first customers is the toughest job. And after that, momentum takes you places. Right now my buddies at MindTouch are hitting the momentum stage. Today the startup announced that it has now crossed 100,000 wiki downloads mark since launching Deki Wiki about a year ago.
According to the company, the current download rate is 500 times per day. That is a real good number considering users are not signing up for some app, but instead downloading to install it on their server/machine. Wonder, how the number looks for SocialText.
Peeking into recent past, it was just couple of months back that the wiki company had launched a feature rich upgrade of their app, about which I had written here. All in all, a truly webservice enabled free wiki software getting the well deserved attention.

Thanks for the mention Vivek. Actually for the last two weeks we’ve been averaging over 700 downloads a day.
You can see the stats here: http://sourceforge.net/project/stats/detail.php?group_id=173074&ugn=dekiwiki&type=prdownload
We were intentionally conservative in the press release.
