I believe strongly in both the posting economy and this quote “Is the sustainability of this new age of social media reliant on high fivers and finger pointers?”

For the companies to really benefit, the users must post, the good and bad. You will also notice I post quite a bit positive.

You too are guilty of not following through from time to time. In mid July I (@davidscottmason) participated in a Twitter trending (scam) for TechStars run by you. Techstars fans everywhere answered your trivia questions, which in turn helped trend the #techstars topic. I successfully answered two questions and promptly sent my address in to claim my prize. I then waited… from July 14th til September 11th when I vocalized my discontent via Twitter about not getting anything. Turns out I wasn't alone. Another person was left out in the cold like I was. You did respond with an excuse and claimed that I should expect my prize in the mail soon.

I even tried to go the extra mile and offered to pick my prize up from you personally at Ignite Boulder 6 on September 16th. Sadly we couldn't meet up because I know you are slightly (meaning very) busy at those events. Completely understandable.

It is now nearly a month after that and I still have nothing to show for participating in something that you ran. I really enjoy attending Ignite Boulder events and think you do a great job. I can certainly sympathize with your post regarding food allergies and poor service. Hopefully your post will be a turning point for the Kitchen Cafe and that they build upon your criticism both good and bad. You have used your blog numerous times to enlighten readers about poor service from various places and companies. But when you complain about poor customer service yet do something similar to others you are nothing more than a hypocrite.
