What is FreeBSD?
FreeBSD is an advanced operating system for x86 compatible, DEC Alpha, IA-64, PC-98 and UltraSPARC architectures. It is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX® developed at the University of California, Berkeley. It is developed and maintained by a large team of individuals. Additional platforms are in various stages of development.

FreeBSD Org
As for who uses it? On the site noted above you can find a list of companies (a partial list mind you). Here is a link

FreeBSD is one of the best OS's out there, IMHO.

You'll find that many ISP's use FreeBSD, I know they do here in Australia, as well as places like Yahoo. Check google's link for a list of who uses it.
