Timing is everything. If you don't get noticed once, post again at a different time.
Correlated is an interesting idea. Have you considered hooking into the various social networks' APIs like Hunch, Twitter, FB, 4sq etc? There is a wealth of data to be explored.
Make your signup even easier. Get rid of First name, ask me later when you get to know me better :-). For now, just let me in.
I think you don't even need to explain why I have to sign up, just ask for email and pwd and click sign up. Reduce clutter.
Also, you've got a branding and mission problem with "Help us discover surprising correlations". It's not about you, it's about me me me. Change it to "Discover surprising correlations."

- akkartik 16y agoIs it really ok to repost? What about tools to manage and automate reposts, would people care for a tweetlater for hacker news? There's a banning offence some way down this slippery slope, but I don't know where that line is drawn.
- revorad 16y agoI've seen lots of people repost Ask HNs. If you are genuinely looking for help and just got the timing wrong the first time, why not? I wouldn't go near autoposts, that's a recipe for spam.
