it is acceptable to pitch to bloggers about your site?
fourlittlebees: As a blogger, sure, it's totally acceptable. My best advice would be not to blanket every single blog with a form letter. Take the good with the bad in any review and don't whine in comments if they don't like it, just accept it as suggestions for improvement from someone who sees a LOT of sites; probably the same, if not more, as a VC.
