Q60. How many sites use AFNI?
I don't know. Since you can download it freely, you can use it without telling me. I used to require registration - at the point when I stopped doing that, I had over 200 registration forms accumulated. But this is just a count of people who downloaded the software - this doesn't say that they actually found it useful. My guess is that 30-50 places currently use AFNI for some purpose. This is based on the number of people that ask me questions (via e-mail or via the AFNI Message Board), and on the number of downloads recorded by the Web server after I post announcements of upgrades. But this is a crude guess, and I have no way of assessing its variance in the probability space of guesses about AFNI usage.
A list of all papers that I know of which cite AFNI can be found here. I suppose that the institutions that so publish can be taken as a list of places that use AFNI seriously.
