Looky here! I actually did it! Round 2
Okay hubski.
I think we can all agree that having a simple "Getting Started" tutorial type thing would be helpful for new users. I stumbled upon this random site a while back and found their getting started page was clean, simple, easy to understand, and would be easy to create. http://hitention.com/
I am so down to make one but I need your help, content wise. I'm an okay writer but with a little teamwork, I think we can make something truly exceptional and easy to understand. Then I'll make it pretty.
I think that the technical features (like how to click the hubwheel) can be omitted as people don't really give a fuck about those. People want to do something, and clicking something is how they do it. Therefore, if we show people how to do the thing they want, they will learn how to click the things to do the thing. Still with me? Good.
1. What is hubski in one sentence.
2. How to get the content.
IMO, this is the more important part. If we can get this right we don't even need the rest.
How do people follow people and things that are relevant to them? How do they find new things? New people have a hard time figuring out how to find, follow, and get posts that they want to see. I also know there are a lot of different ways to go about this. How do you do it?
I was thinking something along these lines:
a. Using tag page to view tags, follow tags and follow the people who use these tags (explains following people, tags, community tags here)
b. Using profile pages to get a deeper sense of the user (recent posts, tags they are interested it, etc) (explains users, profile pages, here)
c. Browse the global pages to find content that is interesting to you and follow those people. (explains hubwheels/sharing here)
d. Remember, you can always unfollow people so don't be afraid to follow someone.
3. How to post your own content
4. Nifty features/references - TMI page, markup, badges, chatter, ???
