Over the past few weeks, NPR News has been running a special series to explore the ideas and trends of 2013: Number of the Year.
We've asked our guests, our colleagues, and our community to tell us which number, no matter how big or small, defined their year. The responses have been incredible, ranging from the hilarious to the heartfelt — and everything in between. You've shared fascinating, and often personal, insights into what its like to be alive in 2013. Thank you for that.
We wanted to round up the year by joining in to share a few of the numbers that defined our organization.
Enjoy!
