Ask HN: My web app is going viral. Now what?

Here's the backstory:

A few months back, I wrote a small web application called "Cheer Me Up" (http://www.cheermeup.info/). In a nutshell, it's basically FMyLife with a far more positive aspect (which is that you can cheer up random strangers, and not just revel in their misery).

Over the past few months, visits have hovered in the 10-15 day range, but for some reason, in the last 15 hours, the site has seen 15,000 visitors (and its growing, quickly).

Now, I'm asking you all because I'm certain a fair number of you have experienced this before. How do I take advantage of this situation?
