Okay, let's just stop the speculation. My team is focused on all kinds of marketing. We were just written up in TheNextWeb, were just interviewed by Earwolff, were on Eye On Business in Orange County, have closed two very large marketing partnerships scheduled to launch soon, as well as are launching some great contests designed to draw eyeballs. We've written 29 blog posts in May, 65-75% of them are album reviews, recaps of the week's new music releases and information about festivals and concerts. The other 25 are either about startups, music industry chat, or both.
Has it proven beneficial to us to write about our startup experience and post to HN? Yes, it has. And based on the number of votes our posts have received, people find the information valuable. We'll try not to make it so frequent that it's annoying, but the content is relevant for this forum and it has driven some great, very feedback-oriented tech people to our website, which is important for not only early adopter traffic but also getting smart people to tell us what they think of our product.
In other words, it's not the core of our marketing plan, but it's not an accident and we'll try not to abuse it. Thanks.
