I'm asking the community for any advice for spreading the SFA site around town. I'm making fliers, biz cards, and shirts and I'm going to email friends & family too. What is the best way to spread the word around universities? Im aware of paid methods, but what to make sure I exhaust all the free / less expensive alternatives. What creative ideas do you have?

Maintain a Twitter and maybe Facebook presence. Try to get to know other San Francisco online communities, so that hopefully someone else will link to the site and recommend it. Can't think of good examples right now, but I know that when Groupon features a business, they get tons of traffic, so we want an effect like that. It would be better to seed the site with lots of initial questions and answers first, though. I think that will make any advertising more effective, since the site concept will be much clearer to visitors.

Chalk up the sidewalks to get a guerrilla marketing thing going on.

This is actually one of the main ways there is advertising on SFSU campus, and honestly it's probably the advertising that's most responded to by the students. (I think it's because chalk usually means less commercial which is more appealing.)
