Probably mostly/only because of curiosity (due to this HN post) and not because they're there from hearing about your project/story/product/service (take your pick - since as the site currently stands... it's very unclear)...

In my opinion, you don't just want numbers, for numbers sake. You want people who are genuinely interested in what your business has to offer.

You want other foodies, who are passionate about being involved. Know what I mean, Vern? :)
