Progress Report: We need your help!

Project 10100 Now is in trouble. The website and Twitter campaign have failed to generate enough exposure to elicit a response from Google. The web traffic spiked on the first day to 250 people and dropped precipitously after that. Yesterday, only 20 people visited the site. We need a major boost to reach critical mass.

If this project is going to succeed, you must help. First of all, we need you to ask your favorite tech blogs to write about us. If you look around most tech blogs, you'll find an email address or contact form for submitting tips. If you don't know of any tech blogs, you can pester Engadget, Mashable, Ars Technica, and Google Blogoscoped. We also need you to promote Project 10100 Now through social media like Digg, Slashdot, and Delicious. You can do that easily with the "share" link at the bottom of the site or in the sidebar of this blog.

Please don't limit yourself to the promotion methods I've mentioned here. If you can think of an off-the-wall campaign or a crazy publicity stunt, we'd be glad to hear it. Of course, the project could also be saved by a polite letter to a local news station or a flyer on a college bulletin board. We need any help you can provide; one person could be the difference between failure and success.

  1. This idea will mean some work but I haven't seen a site that has collected all the ideas from the YouTube videos they put forward. You are likely to elicit a lot of traffic this way and certainly from the respondents to Project 10 to the 100.
    If it helps, Valentino Wiebel put some effort into gathering a list of similar ideas together and I posted them up onto http://blog.beyondoneworld.com/2009/07/30/sharing-projects-from-google-project-10-to-the-100/.
