Got influence? Help us get a write up (shameless begging follows)
Ever since we crossed the two hundred thousand unique user number, we've been thrilled with the progress on the site. Everybody who we ask for feedback seems to stop with "great job" and doesn't have anything they'd improve.
So it stands to reason somebody out there would want to "cover the story" :)
About a month or two ago, gigaom interviewed me however, he's yet to write anything about us. I submitted to techcrunch but no luck there either, or with mashable which is a blog dedicated to social networking type sites (and has covered similar, smaller sites than ours). Even lifehacker ignores us when they've covered other, lessor known sites in the same space, with less unique features. Update - I'd like to add, we'd appreciate somebody here wired magazine's webservices category writing too.
I spammed a guy I consider the most lovable wanker online and he didn't seem intererested.
Do you know any of these people? Or richard macmanus at readwriteweb? These are just the first few I can think of, we've written dozens more, begging to get some "coverage" for our story.
Imagine: the fastest growing Q&A site (according to Quantcast.com), growing faster than Yahoo Answers, Askville, Live QnA, Answerbag, etc, with no venture capital, and very few people want our take on things, or care to share our story.
Well, I'd like to change that. If you have influence, some, a little, or even none, write them & ask them to cover us. Or, if you blog, write up anything you like about our site, and we'll make ourselves available for any & all questions you might have. In fact, if you take a look through the previous coverage about us, I've made myself available before, and am perfectly willing to do it again.
Thanks for listening, I'll stop begging now.
