> there's probably a significant correlation of 37s product users to HN users, but if there's any causation to be found here, it's likely in the direction of explaining why these posts get frontpaged, not in how these frontpaged posts lead to indirect sales.
I think there's causation both ways, but I structured the poll this way to address directly the questionable data on the SvN post.
FWIW, the number of customers claimed by the respondents to this poll already exceeds the number of signups the SvN post states came from HN!
