Never heard of it... So I guess it's failed to reach out, at least to me.

But having looked shortly at www.firebirdnews.org I must say I am not
impressed. Don't get me wrong, the layout and design is fine for a blog
and I can only assume the content is of good quality, but this is not
something that will attract interest. It will possibly satisfy those
already interested. That's my humble opinion anyway.

An edited newsletter with a nice magazine-like layout with editorial
content would probably have a better potential to attract attention,
assuming the content is good, and it looks professional.
