I knew about the site, but I'm a bit of an uber-geek. Its prevalence amongst mainstream users was probably quite minimal for this reason. Furthermore, I have posted numerous questions at Yahoo! Answers and have received good answers for only two or three. Yahoo! is okay for general questions, but when it comes to specific topics - such as technical issues, there is much left to be desired.

It is really hard to get honest opinions from people you know so everyones input has been invaluable to me. Yes I am one person. Of the two or three emails and forms I fill in each day to promote Tinbag.com I did not expect TechCrunch to run the story of a one-man-band outfit. Yes Michael Arrington could have been a bit softer with the article but I doubt it would have received as much interest as it has. And it's true “all publicity is good publicity” I've blown my targets for the next two months. Firstly I'd like to set the record straight, Tinbag.com was never meant to be in direct competition with services like Yahoo Answers. As I've read and reacted to everyones comments the site text has been adjusted to clearly reflect my vision. When Michael first published the article I saw straight away that my original descriptions were too vague. They have been change as new views and opinions appeared. Michael did not report incorrectly, I portrayed the original service too broadly. In the face of bad press you cannot run and hide, you have to react and react I did. Out of all the posts Cory (#58) hit the nail on the head. Tinbag.com is a tool for someone to easily provide a paid FAQ management service for a product they already have. Mark Johnson (#61) mentions 'there are free scripts out there that do the same thing'. This is true but not everyone has the time or knowledge to implement them. Tinbag.com provides a means for people to try out the idea of paid support with next to no investment of time or money. If it works for them they can move on to a more elaborate system, if not Tinbag.com has let them find out virtually cost free. Thanks again for everyones comments and to Michael Arrington for very unexpected but welcome traffic.

It appears Tinbag is a pay-for-Help software (plugin?) for people to put on their own sites and blogs. Frankly, the idea is actually pretty good, all things considered. Bloggers have been burdened with very few ways to make money. Most revenue comes from ads or sponsors or something similar. Implementing a more specialized service like this strikes me as a reasonably good idea. After spending some time on the site, I agree with DanL in #64.

It does not compare itself to Google Answers and its ilk, and I don't know why you have chosen to do so. It works as Cory describes above. Poor journalism, I'm afraid! But in that case, the phrase "all publicity is good publicity" should ring true. Mike, you really haven’t bothered to find out what this site does.
