what kind of ROI did we get out of that particular $6k maneuver?

the good thing is it scales and it did look good

but unless we follow up it’s wasted.

remind me to redesign the pads next time with some direct-contact-us sheets

• that’s what i’m going to do to drag unamerican kids onto the platform
• this will be a defacto unamerican space

• i need metrics on what new features would spur dramatic usage

or would that simply be a further boondoggle?

my inclination is to do it because “why not”

but unless we are going in there with a serious sales or investment strategy it would be like for what? awareness?

you don’t necessarily get new users because of a tradeshow.

you will get awareness and meet people though

and you just might get actual sales

but unless john gets the “walled garden” featureset going there’s nothing to sell right now

• ok
• we are live
• we are out there
• no more stealth
• shouldn’t we come on with guns blazing?
• sure we should.

• then we should start telling our professors and school friends
• the reason is that privacy is going to be a big selling point
• plus it is going to be free
• that way our classmates and schoolmates can start actually using metanotes as their own personal wiki.
