Our product is a presence-aware power outlet (https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.kickstarter.com&#x2F;projects&#x2F;dobots&#x2F;crownstone). It went like crazy in the first few days! However, we didn&#x27;t get traction in the US for now.<p>It might be just the fact that we got unlucky about our media coverage on the big American tech sites.<p>However, perhaps you have better ideas about the mechanisms that make an open-source product like this go viral.<p>Any insights will be really appreciated!
