Summary
A plea for help from tech early adopters re: building an audience for a photo-sharing service for "normal" people. Based on the author's comment he seems to slightly misunderstand the diffusion concept http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion_(business). Here is an interesting discussion on that topic: http://friendfeed.com/e/0346f312-673d-8480-c61f-e252c13723eb/The-passionates-vs-the-non-passionates/. Interesting to read comments from a bunch of tech / social media early adopters about how to appeal to "normal" people. ;) Read the full article

Dude, "normal" people are very different from early adopters. I suggest you find some of them and ask them nicely if they'd be willing to give you some feedback.
