Bloggers do need a "hook" or "story" when posting about you, and the easiest one possible is "New Site X Launches".

Strikes me as an odd question though. Why wouldn't you do an official launch?

If the service has been publicly available for a while, an official launch would be at some arbitrary point much as getting rid of "beta" also occurs at an arbitrary point.
