I didn't get to 10 last time I did this. The above list is all closed and marketing but let's just accept it's all 100% haskell and 100% successful and 100% brilliant.

10 is a measure of how bad the situation is. More than 10 now, GREAT! 15 is less bad than less than 10. Hey let's say it's 50! Why not? Could be. Can't find 50 myself but you'd imagine the haskell website would boost the hell out of it if there were. But hey let's say there are. Why are we not at 500? Seriously. Why not 10,000?

From the original post the point I made was there "orders of magnitude more monad tutorials than haskell applications" is a real and genuine data point and the one I made. Not anything else. If we've got over 10 now I'm thrilled about that. Really.

Apparently noting the problem this book seeks to address has hurt people's feelings.
