Sounds goo to me - how can we reach out to them? Can you Adam? There
is very little content up, and only ~5 slides on the bitly address you
can find in doc...but people are interested. I mentioned it to Tim
Harford and Ben Goldacre yesterday via twitter and they both noted it
- there's a huge want for it amongst the journo crowd
