Can someone post a link to the Foundation Funds spreadsheet? I'm patient but do believe once we have the GUI we will see some good progress on establishing a Foundation (hitting our goals for funding) and strong community. I think there are a lot of secondary deals up in the air, but I expect we'll see a lot of new faces once we hit an exchange and people start buying. Going to be exciting ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17d2k_0Xgy2SSFx6NWx2xyrgF9pFcs_Mr-GgVg5Uvzjw/edit?ts=56eac2b7&pref=2&pli=1#gid=0

3) Be an active community member that go to IoT meetups and conferences, network, get people interested
This is easy, it really works and it eventually pays ! I did a lot of Bitcoin & Cryptos meetups in France and now people pay me to learn about it. Start some meetups in your city now ! Exactly. I think people just mentally over-complicate the issue of how easy it can be to get involved and engaged. You don't require some hyper-extensive tech background or even business background to get some connections. Then just forward it to the foundation and we'll do the rest and you'll know that you've been productive. It's infinitely better than complaining at BTT regarding this, is some material like ELI5 explanation, infographics, powerpoint or whatever available to ease people explain Iota ?

Personally I don't use any infographics or powerpoint. I prefer live demo or discussion. But yeah, a nice infographic would help because we cannot do live demo yet.

We've had powerpoint/google slides available for months, which has been used at IoT meet-ups. We can tailor it for each event. But soon there will be a new website explaining IOTA with graphics and info in more easily digestible manner (right around launch), as well as a video explaining IOTA in 2 min that can be easily sent to people/shown before a presentation. But if anyone got some infographic skills that is also appreciated
