Evangelizing update

[Daniel]

We're now at 2466 nodes on Ripplepay and 75 nodes on Rain Droplet. I've
been trying a few different methods of spreading the word, so far I'd
say that the most effective has probably been to invite trusted people
directly to use a credit service. Getting practical experience seems to
remove many theoretical complexities and ambiguities, and it makes the
idea feel more real. Users of community currencies have expressed the
most interest, especially Bitcoin. People in other fields are often
curious about the idea without thinking right away that they would have
a use for it. I plan on doing more outreach, and would like to focus my
efforts and note which specifics work.

Hm. Have you looked at Love Machine? It's a somewhat interesting project; I can't really say that their goals are compatible, but there might be some interesting possibilities.

Wasn't familiar with them. Wonderful idea though, I'll get in touch with them. Thanks!

Sure... Sent an e-mail to them as well as the somewhat similar Rypple (http://rypple.com/).
