Done! I went through and liked everybody’s comments - you guys are all my new favorite people, BTW, because this is the coolest thing ever. It leads me to my next question - what else can I do now to help out?

I’m glad you guys enjoyed it so much, thanks for making my first foray into digital currencies a pleasurable one. We get roughly 27k followers on Twitter at Tech Cocktail and our site traffic is huge so the more you comment the more recognized it gets. Also the more traffic to the actual article (which I have submitted to StumbleUpon as well) will put me in contention for a top 10 of the week which warrants an extra mention in a different article. It’s all about publicity and I’m really pulling for you guys.

Hey Guys,

My article about Feathercoin was just published today -

I hope you all like it, I had a fantastic time writing it. I’ll be continuing my Feathercoin adventures and look forward to meeting more of you.

Also, if any of you haven’t seen this video, I highly recommend it- this guy is awesome.

Thanks for the overwhelming positive response.

And, John, you were an amazing resource yesterday. This is one of those experiences that I am going to dig deeply into even after my article is published - so thanks for turning me on to it!

So, I’m thinking my article is going to be a quasi investigative journalism piece detailing my adventure the forums and community with some quotes spliced in here and there. Perhaps any of you could take a stab at this question I have and I’ll try to get you in the piece:

I recognize that the community aspect of Feathercoin is a huge draw for a lot of you, but I’m curious - what other part do you find so addicting?

Thanks!

Hey Feathercoin!

My name is Will Schmidt and I am a writer. I have extensive experience with both professional and creative pieces and my aim is to write movie scripts in Hollywood someday. Until then, though, I’m having fun with it.

I had an extremely pleasant and insightful conversation with Mr. John Manglaviti on the phone earlier because my current occupation is an Associate Writer with Tech Cocktail (www.tech.co). I am actually going to be writing a piece on Feathercoin because I’m insanely interested in the community and the entire digital currency movement. So, that being said, feel free to send me any insights or experiences worth sharing!

I’m very excited to see how I might fit in around here and I look forward to meeting as many of you as possible. The community vibe you guys have going on here is absolutely amazing and refreshing to see in today’s world - long live Feathercoin!

All good things,
Will
