No farming on purpose by me but something is going on. I'm getting a crazy amount of traffic to my blog. Like nothing I've ever seen before.

On another matter, I thought posts about how a startup is doing something different to grow would be of interest to some at least??

Ahhyeah I see now it only has a few upvotes - there must've been an algorithm glitch because it was the #5 story on the front page when I clicked on it.

The topic is relevant, but the format of long Q&As with a lot of info on the people and the company, which to me as a random HN reader feels irrelevant, plus the click-baity title, made it look out of place on the front page.

Hope this is constructive.

Looks like some upvote farming going on here... this isn't the type of story Hacker News usually finds interesting.
