I've got a similar problem with http://www.LiveFanChat.com in that our live sporting chat sites need "Density" with multiple people visiting at the same time in order for it to be effective.

We have plenty of people "Sign up for accounts" but it frustrates me no end to see someone sign up and then not post anything into the chat room only to log out 60 seconds later...as someone enters the same chat room...and doesnt say anything either :)

Luckily both of the founders have "Real jobs" and we're happy to keep paying for servers etc from other income but yeh "build and they will come" is as problematic online as it is in baseball when it comes to chatting about sports at http://www.LiveNascarChat.com http://www.LiveFootballChat.com http://www.LiveBaseballChat.com etc etc.

I guess the only answer i have is if you were just a "Designer" or just a "Coder" you wouldn't let someone get away with moaning so maybe now people in startups understand that "Promoter" is the third leg of the stool.

I look at Dennis Crowley with FourSquare and marvel at the volume and depth of the press he got in the first 6 months so possible we shouldn't be dissing Catrina Fake but looking at how we can add to our own skills.

Just a thought.
