Show HN: I jumped on a meme - SheenMe.me (opens in new tab)

I just went to check if AsSheenOnTV.com was taken. Apparently someone already had that idea.

HN sent about 2000 uniques (between direct clicks and shares) with about 10000 page views on day 1. Then it died.... :)

I've reached out to a number of blogs to share the site and its initial success, reached out to folks on Twitter, etc., and -- for whatever reason -- it just ain't happening.

It's that whatever reason part that I'm interested in now -- I think there was ample opportunity built into the site for sharing, and a number of people actually did use these tools. I'm at a complete loss, then, as to where it went wrong.

Any thoughts on where I could have improved the social aspects? Or the site itself?

Guess we'll see. It could still "go," but I don't have a lot of time and resources at the moment to spend pushing it. It was fun to build and play with, anyway. :)

For those who noticed: multivoting has been fixed (or at least mitigated).

This is fun! :)
