Thank you very much, With!
You are very kind.

I don't know what "TechCrunch Tokyo Camp" is like.
But it sounds good for Lang-8 to PR.
After you join it, please tell us about it.
頑張ってください。

I can't say that media attention would do Lang-8 much justice in america. Since language learning is considered difficult, it's not very popular... It wouldn't hurt lang-8, but you wouldn't be able to beat the ever famous Rosetta Stone software package. If you're worried about getting more people interested in lang-8, you need teachers to be impressed by it, therefore then suggesting to (or even requiring it of) their students. Best thing here would then be for people already here on lang-8 to suggest it to their teachers.

You must also become aware, however, that more users means more trouble and maybe even a few trolls (people who like attention and therefore cause trouble). It also means that there'll be more free users than paid users. It's easier to ask a small site's users for money than a large commercial one. A large one lets users think, "eh, i'll let the next guy donate."

However, if it does get big, it's possible that you could get donations from non-profit organizations trying to support free projects that improve the world.
