Activity widgets are here!

Hey everyone, it's been a while!

We've just released iglu 1.11, with brand-new widgets for your Home Screen! The activity widgets are a great way for you to see your recent writing activity on iglu, not to mention the beautiful 'heat map' design (shoutout to @GitHub). The widget is available in small and medium.

I originally asked if guerrilla marketing works in another thread. Here are the results from my first experiment with this style of marketing!
On 3/31 I launched a quick and dirty (pun intended) tool:

With the hope that the CTA at the bottom of the page might drive some traffic to the personal finance tool i'm (constantly talking about) building.

A little over 300 people clicked the CTA
A little over 20 people made accounts
Marketing like this feels useful! and I will continue to try things like this in the future!
