We have had several suggestions via Skribit this week. Some are using it to make snarky comments that stay on the home page and not really because they expect a post about it on http://www.techdrawl.com. We'll leave them up for awhile.
Cool idea. Just curious, did you try out for YC Paul?
I have not applied for YC. I was still finishing up college and was never really in a position to be able to move and have a cofounder that could do the same. And when I did graduate, Georgia Tech invested in us. http://www.gatech.edu/newsroom/release.html?id=2356
Woot, GT! Are you a fresh grad?
December 08, so pretty fresh. ;-)
Awesome. Good luck with skribit! The more local start ups the better.
How many people are actively using Skribit on their blogs?
I'm not sure we are comfortable giving this info out yet (although we have a live # of blogs on our homepage), but about 65% of all account holders are what we would consider active, and if you wanted to get nitpicky ~10% are very active. This does not include users that do not use us with a blog, but instead just to keep track of suggestions/people they follow.
As I mentioned in my post though, this is with no formal marketing efforts aside from me blabbing about it on my blog. Hopefully in 2-3 months we'll be in a position to market and spread the word out a lot more.

Great insights. Anything on revenue forecast Paul?
