HN Meta bitching question on my part. How come this Review my startup request gets multiple points in minutes and hits the front page, yet mine gets nothing in hours? http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1743398 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1743398 (feel free to down vote as needed)

Probably because the HN community isn't the target market for your startup (political campaigners) but is for this one (OCD about productivity and email).

Not to continue the off-topic, but I've noticed this problem and started a mailing list just focusing on review requests (http://minvp.com http://minvp.com). Of course, that too dropped off the new page with no comments :)

  Liked the idea. Just subscribed.

  I like the idea too, but would rather subscribe to an RSS feed. I get enough email already...

    Haven't advertised yet, but if you go to http://minvp.com/apps http://minvp.com/apps you'll find everything I send out in the email.

You have an interesting app. I think many of us, at least myself, may not really get it. I'm not that familiar with phone banks for political campaigns. But 16 days is a pretty good turnaround. :)

Luck plays a factor in this.
