Can I get feedback on My Pligg tutorial?

[rockmymonkey]

So I had a few people ask how to submit a story. So I made a little video. It is my first ever tutorial video for anything, so I would love some feedback.

I watched your video and overall its VERY clear, a little to clear for my taste, but depending on your users' tech savvy it might just work.

But what I REALLY liked about your video is that...

A.) You did a cool screencast to expalin your point (NEVER enough of these in my opinion yet @ least)

B.) In doing so you are REALLY able to explain the culture of your offering and thus, why people would WANT to be a part of it.

Good work!

Thanks for the feedback from both you you. This tutorial was made for those with almost no tech savvy at all. So it may be annoying to any level of geek.

For those that want to make one themselves, this is how I did it.

I got all the screen shots using Gimp. Then I used Audacity to record myself reading a little script I wrote up. I uploaded all of that into Windows movie maker and just kept stretching the length the "slides" stayed on the screen on the slide bar at the bottom of the Windows movie maker program. So it only took a few hours and I mostly used open source software.

If anyone has any questions on how to do this for your own Pligg sites ask away. I figure if I can help a few people maybe they can help me with something later. Cheers!

$300! No thanks. I think what I did gets my point across fine without spending any money at all.

I have several regulars that are about as slow with techy things as it gets and this tutorial left them with zero questions.
