For what it's worth, I've organically discovered several of Clojurewerkz's
projects just via google search, so I think Michael's methods work,
although there is indeed a fair amount of effort involved in maintaining
the promotion.

I like the https://twitter.com/nodenpm for node.js npm package updates.
It's high noise, but I sometimes discover something that looks interesting.
Clojars could do something similar--I'd follow.
