Re: "Ghost town" problem, responding to user feedback

One potential customer I spoke with commented how they'd like to see sort of a "social proof" that people are using the site. They had commented how Reddit's founders created a bunch of "fake" user accounts and posted, commented as them to show people using it.

Instead of faking content, I added a "demo" mode that shows a few advertisements that were actually published on the site. I think it's a win-win.

What do you think of the implementation? Head to https://24hourhomepage.com and wait for the chat bubbles to play through.
