Now wouldn’t it be great to have something substantial before the start of a media campaign.
As of now I think nexern will have a client within three weeks.
Maybe you can work together with nexern and put it in a nice package.
And I agree with Klee we need the white paper.
Don’t know what others think about priotorization but imo:
1) Stable running servers and software
2) white paper
3) A nice looking client
4) Media campaign
and if possible before the end of the month

+ lots

Until those issues are resolved, though, I believe that all the marketing savvy NXT folks should start making a BIG STINK out of the fact that NOBODY has been able to find a flaw yet in the other topic! Who knows? ...such marketing stunt could continue all the way till April 3!!! Grin
You know, I've been reading that thread with NO knowledge of code whatsoever with the intention of being able to write about it.
So far the only angle that presents itself to me is "people are doing Huh, about Huh, but apparantly all is still Grin. There is some Roll Eyes going on, but CfB has went Tongue and Wink, so all is probably well"
I'm so out of my league there that I feel like I'm a toddler that's been admitted to university.
Yep, I'm with u there. Any code more advanced that a 3 line .bat file makes my brain go into Homer S. mode.
But I did read the bug threads, and it seems like a case of "no news is good news".
Lots of smart people, some of them very anti-NXT, have taken the code to pieces and can't find any show-stopping problems. Yay Grin
I'm thinking a bit at the moment about marketing, and it seems to me that we need to take a "big bang" approach at a certain moment in the near future, just drop a massive, co-ordinated marketing bomb on the world.
The first 2 things we need are:
1) A truly stable and idiot proof client for Windows and Mac.
2) Simple, reliable exchanges capable of handling serious trade volume.
Once we have those 2 things up and running to everyones satisfaction, then we drop the marketing bomb and watch the world run to NXT......
The bomb needs to consist of:
Press releases, both to the web and to old-school news sources (TV, print, radio....)
A publicity stunt (like the idea from 400 pages ago of giving 1 mega-NXT to Max Keiser)
Giveaways, guides and promotions for the new NXT users.
Publicity materials and giveaways, such as stickers, T-shirts and other swag
I'm gaing to be having a chat with some marketing guys in the next few days, see if I can turn my vague ideas into some sort of real plan. Might open a topic on nxtcrypto for this later in the evening, got to go AFK for a while.
Tell me what ya think, anyhow.
@Damelon.....the mimes are coming.
And now I really am going to bed
