Who are you, and why do you think people should fill out your blog with news for you?
How about you manually contact every Web 2.0 startup asking them for data to populate your blog with? That will make more sense: if you in need, you go out and ask.
- amichail 19y agoThis is for people who need to promote their startup and don't have a significant traffic source. If enough people contribute to this blog, it might become popular thus providing these people with a source of traffic. So in essence, people would contribute to this blog for the same reason that they would contribute to freshmeat.
- nostrademons 19y agoOwners of Web 2.0 startups have far more to gain from this than Amichail does. Generally, economic returns accrue to those who do the difficult parts; it's far more difficult to start a Web 2.0 company than setup a blog, so far more gain accrues to the users of this than the blog itself. I, for one, plan to use it as soon as we launch our startup. Unfortunately it's not much good if you're not ready for traffic, but I think it'll be a nifty added source of exposure.
- inklesspen 19y agoYou're assuming anyone will read it. I'm afraid this is far from given.
- nostrademons 19y agoIf nobody reads it, you're out the 30 seconds it takes to post. I'll take that bargain...
