Pastebin Surpasses 10 Million “Active” Pastes

It took 8 years for Pastebin.com (which, for the unassociated, is sort of like the Internet’s clipboard. Anyone can paste in a big ol’ wall of text and share it with anyone else, often anonymously) to reach 1 million “active” (read: not spam or expired) pastes. In the year and a half since, it’s spiked all the way up to 10 million.

Interestingly enough, Pastebin’s original owner chose to sell it off just before the massive uptick — bet you can’t guess why!
