I will believe the PR is working when articles appear in the guardian, nyy, washington post, sj mercury news, multiple international papers and the economist, and I am given a chance to sing the mushroom management song [1] with the audience joining each rousing chorus, on the Late Show... not before. Winning the tech press and blogosphere is not enough. Seeing Barack Obama utter the word, "bufferbloat", might be.
