Find and respond quickly to requests from journalists

January 15, 2021 Opened the site to everyone!

A big milestone and the culmination of a few weeks of real crunch time:

We lifted the password block from the public-facing corporate site and did our first post on Twitter to announce that we were open for business. After some months of development, https://dotstar.media is live!

Of course, not everything goes without a hitch: we spotted a few days later that our prices page had been pointing to our staging site, which was happily accepting signups. Oops!

The lesson there? recursive wget and grep works wonders.
