I'm not a parent, but the site looks great and I can definitely see the appeal of this kind of community/service.

Has the WeSprout team spent much time reaching out to parenting bloggers?

We're not super connected to that community, but we'll be doing our best over the weekend and into next week to make those connections and see where we get. It's definitely on our radar.

Good to hear. The TC coverage is a great way to kick things off, but in the long-run, I think investing time in developing a presence in that community is what can really bring you a significant number of signups.

Yeah, TC is good for us to get a reasonably-sized audience that knows how to handle a young product, in case we run into glitches or interaction friction. As we feel better about its broad applicability, we'll do our best to do exactly what you just described.
