How Buffer was featured on over 100 blogs in just 2 months

I mean no slight on your service whatsoever. My commentary was more with regard go what has become a truism of modern society. That being that you can't go wrong appealing to someone's ego. Whether that means helping them pimp their company or their personality. I suppose this is something that has always been a truism, but only in the last couple decades has it approached the point where it applies to nearly everyone with no entry barrier. From a grade school kid to a grandmother and from the soccer mom with a trinket to sell on the side to the serial start-up guru onto the next huge thing. If you can facilitate that, you're onto an almost sure thing. :)

Hey, good to find you on here. I've been impressed by the way you've managed to promote Buffer - you've certainly worked hard on it. It seems like you've also gotten good at writing promotional copy, especially since English isn't your native language.

Anyway, personally, whenever I hear a marketing 2.0-type person talk about "relationships" and "conversations", I feel like there's a bit of dishonesty going on. The truth is the marketer has something to sell, that's their real priority, and there's nothing wrong with that. But again, just my opinion. Would love to hear your views...
