[FM Discuss] how to show off booki?

[Joshua Facemyer]

  I think that would be a great start.

It would be cool to show a split screen with the screencast on one side 
and the concurrent activity of the sprinters on the other, showing some 
collaboration from both perspectives.  Maybe that wouldn't work out so 
well, but if it did, I think would be a great effect.

We'd also need some narration, which, I think, you should provide, Adam :)
