A couple of people have been asking for a few stats on how 2011 went on the site, so here goes.

There are now 63,353 pubs on the site, of which 53,787 are listed as open. Of the 53,787 open pubs we have reviews of 20,972 and photos of 37,268.

During 2011 we had 11,978 reviews of 9,724 different pubs written by 1,295 reviewers. There were 46,474 Photos of 17,659 pubs were submitted by 468 different photographers.

The number of reviews was quite a bit less than the 17,116 in 2010, but not surprising as there were a lot being migrated from BITE during 2010.

Anyway, here are all the raw stats for 2011 against previous years so you can see exactly how things have been going.
