Well done!

I woke up Thursday to find that you guys blew up our little email submission form on the website. Way to hit that submit button, that’ll teach us to use free web tools.

Looks like the coverage from the game press (Gamasutra), web press (Mashable), virtual worlds folks (Virtual World News) and financing press (Red Herring) generated a bit of a stir. Metaversed did a good overview job of the coverage, so I won’t do that.

Instead, in a vain attempt at making this otherwise bland posting offer at least a little value, I’m listing out the top five press mentions in order of who actually generated the most inbound traffic here at conduitlabs.com

1. Techmeme (22%)
2. Techcrunch (9%)
3. Read/Write Web (6%)
4. VentureBeat (5%)
5. Gamasutra/Worlds in Motion (5%)

The ranking is of course a factor not only of the popularity of the site, but also how extensive and featured the coverage was. For instance Mashable was nowhere to be seen, because despite having more traffic than Techcrunch, their coverage was cursory.

Another fun surprise for us was the amount of you that actually subscribed to the blog. It looks like there is even an entrepreneurship class that is going to be tuning in. I guess that means we actually have to work on some interesting things to put up here, eh? Don’t worry, we’re working on it.

    OK, so now that everybody’s subscribed to the blog, can you put the full post in the feed.

    Good point Rick. They are supposed to be full feeds, we’ll look into that.

    Throw us a bone please? I believe that right now it’s a 3-way tie between you folks, Whirled, and Areae as the most secretive and potentially world changing web-based mmo(?) that has yet to be launched…

    That’s good company Andrew. I like what Raph and Daniel are up to, that’s for sure.

    As soon as we got stuff to show, we’ll be throwing it your way.
