helloluis··on How does a guy with no marketing background promote their social media startup?
Interesting. I'll definitely work on trying to get specific people to use the app for their business. It sounds like I'm going to be knocking on a lot of doors.

Well, we're providing small business owners with a toolkit for building what we call "universal fan pages" which are one-page, mobile-friendly websites that contain your branding, your media and the social buzz about your company. Like this one: http://almostgourmet.infinite.ly

I'm not entirely sure if a uni kid would appreciate something like that, although I suppose it's possible to use Infinite.ly for their student organizations and such.

Ok, so we've got a blog (it's at http://blog.infinite.ly) that I'm currently using as a kind of weekly changelog. I've been maintaining that for a couple months now, but I'm not really getting the kind of interest that I was hoping for. I assume this means I'm not doing it properly.

I assume you mean "write a column." But where? We're a startup in a developing country, so the interest for that kind of thing over here is pretty thin.
