Re: Promoting our core applications

Hello Ray,

I agree, Tubes cost more time, but they also pay off better. More information in less time, more interesting to watch than read,

perhaps more views too, and videos powering up the personal connection, which is important special on community projects.

Imagine that even MS and Google do that, that are totally corporated, while in most crowdfunding campaigns people use videos.

Plus now you said, yes Allan do spend a lot of time, perhaps design videos ending like "GNOME Design, Involve NOW!",

is a good idea to push people contribute in design. I know you may think that those messages sound stupid, but maybe

they aren't. 

And as Allan said, it wasn't really a request, rather a proposal. I guess it is pretty much the same, but anyway :)

There's no harm in making a suggestion.

Although, Alex might want to retract it after seeing me speak in front
of a camera. ;)
