Great points by Kirsten

re:invention blog - for women entrepreneurs. Kind words from K.O. on how to pitch stories.

Good advice for everyone. The amazing thing about the web is that when you do something wrong, it gets indexed in google and a zillion folks learn about it right away.

As John said, we are sorry and we shouldn't have sent a big PDF, its easy to get carried away and so easy to ask permission first.

In any case, we do read the lots of blogs although it is amazingly hard to keep up. Its not just the marketing ones like yours, but it is VC ones, the technology ones, and the general punditry as well.

Love the targeting and focus as well. You should BTW check out VC Mom, its the newest one from the Geeks at Ignition. Michelle is going put up some insights about being a woman in venture capital that might be helpful to all.

BTW does anyone else think that the UI to set up a manual trackback in MT is terrible. Just the string Enter URL to Ping makes little sense, should be more like enter Trackback address IMHO
