It has been nearly nine years since the first accreting millisecond pulsar was discovered. Since then six additional systems have been found. I will present a brief historical overview about the discovery and properties of these seven systems. In addition, I will discuss the most important recent developments in our understanding of these systems and their relationship with the non-pulsating accreting neutron stars. The accreting millisecond pulsars have played a crucial role in increasing our understanding of the kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillations and burst oscillations seen in the X-ray flux in the non-pulsating systems.
