The general idea is that we're starting with "programmers and.." taking teeny tiny baby steps to obvious overlaps: - programmer and sysadmin (Server Fault) / computer enthusiasts (Super User) Now let's broaden it a bit with SE 2.0, and take more baby steps: - programmer and (musician / car nut / gun enthusiast / videogamer) That's the core audience for the new sites; it's driven by the anchor site which is an order of magnitude larger than the other sites in the trilogy (and two orders of magnitude larger than any Stack Exchange 1.0 website). But, if we keep taking a series of progressive baby steps... - musician and (gardener / pilot / GIS expert / contractor) Eventually, we'll take enough of these baby steps that entirely new non-programmery audiences will form. It's like Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, but with forum topics!
