Just to let you know, I was one of those people who reviewed and commented on PolishMyWriting when you posted it here 16 days ago.
Your site has continued to stick in my head. There's been more than one occasion that I've thought this email or that blog post should have been run through your system.
HN has introduced me to a lot of new sites, and not one has struck me as immediately functional as yours.
I think it could be very popular. My only piece of advice (and honestly no offense to Ashley Johnson) would be to hire a new graphic designer to give it an overhaul.
I like your idea of analyzing corporate blog copy and sending them the results, but why not do that for any popular blogger? If they use your service, they might write about you. There are a lot of blogs out there about blogging.
Good luck, to both you and Shawn.
- raffi 18y agoThanks for the advice... this story takes place mostly in June. Everything I wrote about feels like ancient history to me now. Once I started moving to my personal plan B I've found a lot of the effects I wrote about reversed quickly. That said, I introduced my tech demo to news.yc about 2 weeks ago. I fully agree with your assessment that I could use a better designer. Really though, this is about Shawn here. I see a similar situation, cash in hand, running off to start a venture. I hear the sound of clanking brass spheres. Oh and I second what Shawn said. This community is awesome. I think I started to read news.yc in July and found the existence of like minded folks a real boon.
