Congrats Heroku: 100,001 deployed apps I just started using Heroku a week ago and I'm in love. (I kinda wish I was the 100,000th deployed.) |

How many of these apps have seen a page-hit during the last month?
So, the answer is: probably close to zero.
But this is part of the beauty of Heroku. If you hack something together instead just storing it with "git push origin" you can do "git push heroku" and actually demo it to the world for free.
I like to think of Heroku's 100,000 apps as public demos of a lot of GitHub repositories.
If a significant portion of these apps were active then that would translate to a 6 figure hosting bill from amazon (per month!).
So either heroku is much larger than I thought, or most of these apps are not actually doing much.
