You're wrong, there's a real need for promoting D worldwide.
Just for example, this mainstream (french) programming site has 
(had?) a forum for D which is not updated or used at all: 
http://www.developpez.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?s=fadd36f8505c59f0714e4e24a0c5a195&f=1180

Fedora a few years ago has proposed the D language as a part of 
their very "extremist open source ashole repository". The fact is 
that D is totally missing from their dev packages ("sudo yum i 
want some only opensource douche stuff even if I have to type 
make make install every two minutes"). And If you setup dmd 
manually they'll propose you to setup ldc, which is not possible 
due to some broken package dependencies...

Blogs are usefull, D can be used in many editors and compiled in 
two portables IDE (Xamarin and Geany) and in another mainstream 
win-only-IDE(VS)...
