Ask HN: Autograph my MacBook (An Experiment In Word Of Mouth)
It started when Woz autographed the lid of my MacBook as I stood first in line for the iPad launch April 2010. Second, I asked Guy Kawasaki to autograph my MacBook. He obliged. I put a clear Spec Case over the lid to protect the signatures.
People now ask me about the 2 autographs and the typical what, why, when questions. People I dont even know come up to me and ask me about the autographs and who signed it.
I got to thinking, I wonder just how much word of mouth would get people to sign up for products.
So my quest is to collect a few more autographs. When someone asks me about the signatures I will tell them about it in as much detail as they want.
So here is a chance to promote potential business. Autograph the lid to my MacBook and I will promote your business. I am in San Jose but would be willing to meet where ever to execute.
Here are some people/companies that I would be interested in promoting since I use/believe in the service.
Drew Houston / DropBox
Jack Dorsey or Ev or Biz / Twitter
Kevin Rose / Foundat.io/n
Tony Conrad / About.me
Phillip Rosedale / SecondLife
