In my more idealistic moments, I like to think that good software
sells itself. That you don't have to do anything beyond excellent
documentation* to become popular. Unfortunately, this isn't always
true.

Now that beanstalkd is starting to mature and we're on the verge of
the much-requested persistence feature, I think our marketing could
stand to be improved.

Here are some ideas to start with:
 - prettier web site
 - more concise/engaging "getting started" documentation
 - links to the tutorials people have written
 - more thorough "end-to-end" client and server tutorial-style documentation
 - testimonials from happy beanstalkd users
 - links to a few high-volume/high-profile users
 - register beanstalkd.net or something similar

Anybody else have thoughts on this? Any graphic designers out there
who want a crack at this web site?

* I'm not claiming that beanstalkd has excellent documentation. That's
one of the things I want to improve! :)
