Effectively no one knows how good Micro.blog is for blogging. I alternate between being bummed out by this and optimistic that there is so much room for growth. Might take a few more years for overnight success to hit.
@manton If you want to get the word out, you need marketing and PR. I can help you with that (no charge — I like the platform and I want it to succeed). I do this for a living; see my LinkedIn profile. OTOH, if you want to continue organic growth, that’s fine too.
