Dear Subscribers, Sorry To Confuse You

Subscribers to the Common Craft Blog may have seen a strange message today about licensing that included the line "Your application will be reviewed."

This is a mistake - you should not have received this message. We created a new page and for some reason, the introduction on that page got included in the messages that go to subscribers. We'll make sure it doens't happen again.

Sorry to confuse you - we'll be back to normal programming this week.

We are blown away with the response to the recent post "What Videos Should We Make?" Not just the quantity (over 50 comments and lots of email), but the quality. It's exciting to see suggestions that have opened up new ideas and ones that fit with a couple of the themes that have been top-of-mind.

As I've told Sachi recently, it feels a little like we're at the edge of a pool, preparing to jump in. We're confident that we're on the right track, but the content of our future videos will diverge from the social media focus that people have come to expect from Common Craft. That's why your suggestions have been so encouraging - they help us see that there is a need for the kinds of "back to basics" videos we'd like to make.

At the end of the day, change is not only good, but necessary and the shock of a cold pool quickly becomes refreshing. I think we'll dive-in head first.

What Videos Should We Make?

Our big transition is almost complete and we need your help. The new Store is up, we're finishing up the last custom projects and now is the time to plan what videos we'll offer in the Store over the next year. We have lots of ideas, but we really want to know what you think.

We want to make videos that:

Help professionals and educators increase awareness and create change at work
Have a positive impact on the Web

A good example of this is our video "Wikis in Plain English", which is part of our our Social Media series. We've heard from schools, corporate training programs, individual professionals and bloggers that this video has helped them influence others. Ultimately, our goal is to make videos that have similar appeal.

Like our current videos in the Store, our future videos will be offered with these license types:

Individual (personal professional use)
Site (organizational use)
Free (non-commercial, online use)

So, what video subjects or themes would have a positive influence in your company or school?

Another way to think about it... "My company or school would be better-off if people had a quick and easy way to learn about ______."

If you prefer privacy, please contact us directly. Thanks in advance!
