It is funny that I spammed Wp and then was dense enough to post it on digg. I believe in being very transparent, but I am learning a few lessons. I am just thankful that I am learning some important lessons before our company has grown too much.

Thanks to those of you who kindly teach me.

One “rule” you forgot to mention is once you have spammed Wp it is a bad idea to blog it and then get that entry covered by Digg.

Spamming Wp is for people who understand the meaning of “subtle” and “viral”.

Thanks for the incite. I did over look that the guidelines are to “avoid” posting about your own company - I am learning.

But I should note that it “is not set in stone and should be treated with common sense and the occasional exception.” and that “If the rules prevent you from improving or maintaining Wikipedia, ignore them.”

I am not saying that you are wrong. But some would argue that in an open source situation, an appropriate posting of your own business could often improve wikipedia, giving others a start for writing about who you are.
