A comment on Pinboard Turns Five.

The blog post states that Pinboard makes around $200k a year but they charge only a one-time fee of $10. Does that mean they get 20k signups each year? Does Pinboard display ads or is there another business model behind it?

I didn't even know this, and I 'bought' it really early on. Thanks for letting me know - I've now signed up for the extra service!
