Article has been butchered, but wasn't very good to start with. Has some interesting press, but the fact remains that it is a "pre-alpha" piece of software. I would have tagged it CSD#A7 if not for the coverage. Delicious carbuncle (talk) 17:54, 14 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep significant RS coverage although you wouldn't know that from the sub-stub that currently exists. I'm going to work on it to see what I can do. Travellingcari (talk) 16:22, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
 * ETA I've just sourced it, it's still a stub but it's gotten worldwide coverage including: WSJ, The Guardian and USA Today. I think it's notable, despite it's 'pre-alpha' stage Travellingcari (talk) 16:40, 22 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep as a result of Travellingcari's good work. Being "pre-alpha" is irrelevant to notability guidelines; being reported by reliable sources is very relevant. Phil Bridger (talk) 23:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Keep as Seesmic is now in closed beta and has backing by some big names–including Michael Arrington at TechCrunch, Steve Case of AOL fame, Michael Parekh, managing director at Goldman Sachs and Red Hoffman, founder of LinkedIn. The new investment round of 6.6 million comes from an investment fund created by the founders of Skype and this will certainly generate a lot of user interest.Sm2755 (talk) 01:07, 25 February 2008 (UTC)
