Hey, we're aiming to post several new articles every day. We have an in-house editorial staff (I'm managing editor, former GigaOM writer & editor Darrell Etherington is senior writer) and a group of global contributors.
But we're more focused on quality analytical pieces that press release rewrites - quality over quantity. Thanks for checking it out!
If you can stay true to the quality over quantity goal, BetaKit could very well become one of my most read sites. But I suspect it would be very hard to do so — everything I've experienced with online journalism suggests that quantity of posts is what pays the bills.
Love this article, mostly for the snark. The first three are literally spot-on - I've signed up for more Launchrock pages in the last few weeks than I can count. I don't advocate being evil, but if it's as tried-and-true a success tactic as coverage on TC...then so be it.
I've definitely received a few e-mails from startups who have launched since I put my e-mail in on their Launchrock page...but I love his idea to e-mail people once a month to update on progress and ask for feedback/help.
