I've shared a couple emails with Elizabeth on this with some thoughts on content. The goal is to do something sustainable and set realistic expectations, but also test what we might be able to pick up during 2014 which stands to be an exciting year with 14.04 release.</div>
<div><br></div><div>YouTube is one of the biggest search engines in the world right now, and I personally used it a lot when trying to preview linux versions to install before I picked Xubuntu as my favorite. It really helped to demystify linux when I was very new to it. There's a lot of good content out there, some pretty sincere folks bumping FOSS and making good quality content, and it's an opportunity to get your great work in front of more eyes.</div>
<div><br></div><div>While I can pull in some great Xubuntu reviews and other helpful content, I think it would be a good custom content project to create some short videos based on the user guide. It may sound a little boring, but it's helpful, it's the kind of thing that people keyword search the search engine and google for - and so it feels like attractive organic seo content to me.</div>

<br></div><div>I saw a user guide online for 12.04 - I heard maybe there'd be a new one - or some new documentation being developed.</div><div>Any recommendations on this documentation? I could use it as content to narrate the videos.</div>

Thank you. </div></div></blockquote><div><br>We are looking into doing tutorials for an Ubuntu Studio youtube channel and I would be happy to collaborate and share ideas as many things will be the same or similar between the distros.<br>
