Today’s the day we start the soft launch. We’ve spent the last week getting the site in order (final bug fixes, test pass, and perf / load runs) and we’re ready to show the site to a broader audience. We’re starting small with friends, family, and online communities that we’re a part of (my WoW guild, Seattle Tech Startups etc.). We’re creating incentives relevant to those groups and are sending out initiations now.
As you could probably guess opening the site to the world is incredibly exciting and a little nerve-wracking at the same time. We’ll be keeping a close watch on traffic as well as the inflow of new ideas over the next few weeks to see how things take off.
