Post here because you enjoy it and love the community. Odds are if you come here to just "look smart" or increase your odds at getting into YC you will be sorely disappointed.

I think a good rule of thumb is to do what feels natural rather than forced. For example, I comment on HN just as I've always done on TechCrunch. My team plans to submit an application because it seems a natural step for us. In fact, we feel our project fills a natural need, and would be going full steam ahead with or without YC.
