Howdy, Alright, I wanted to focus on specific users or scenarios regarding this printed promo material - the earlier flyer skewed towards large user count scenarios, so went towards the other end of the spectrum.
Started with the persona of an individual student, decided that was too broad also - College students, also thought this too broad - so, settled my focus on an Individual university student / teaching aid / professor, likely not in the CS field (not looking for developers here, it is for all intent a sales/marketing piece), is at the point in the academic career where the power features of the tools are being needed and I would think they are (or want to believe they are) socially responsible. Anyway, as you can see I'm in long winded mode - short of it Here is the PDF of what I think is the first finished piece/ First Draft - I tried to put this on confluence BTW, but am having problems logging on, I'll try again later on that - for now here it is on google again: PDF https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bx7ZNEXlmR0INm5IZzQwQXRodGM ODT https://docs.google.com/file/d/0Bx7ZNEXlmR0IVmJ3QzVDNjQyaHc So - If someone wants to move it to the cwiki, please do, hmmm Apache license of couse [suppose I should add that in the properties, huh?] otherwise I'll try reseting my password there again, later. As for content - well, what do you think? I know you all can help make it better.
