True, I'm sure. I only want a handful of users for alpha (too many to communicate with and I won't make my schedule), and I wanted to ask in my own communities first.
not what I meant, I meant that he might get the wrong type of feedback, because the brides that people on a site like HN know have different priorities compared to the "airhead" type bride on one of the wedding forums
"Hey, I'm new at wedding forums dot com, but I wonder if any of you airheads want to try out my new wedding website service?" Contempt for customers is always a great place to start.
Seriously, if it turns out my alpha users are disproportionately nerdy (which adjective I use with all love) and/or smart and they turn out to be misleading about what "airheads" want, then I guess I'll have built the wedding website service for nerdy/smart couples. I can think of worse positions to be in.
