"Hi [name],
My name is [name] - I'm the community manager at Aardvark. Aardvark is a new social search service that finds the perfect person to answer any question.
We launched our new website (http://vark.com) a few weeks ago. One of our engineers, [name], just wrote a great blog post about how we use AJAX in our new site, and I thought you'd find it interesting.
