I'm not sure. There are two ways to go about it. I really love the intro.js, but I'm not sure if it can fully capture everything we want to capture.

My main concern with intro is this: Will the focus will be on the navigation and aspects of a the page/UI rather than capturing the essence of hubski and how to make it work for you.

I know my writeup isn't the best at capturing this yet but I hope we can create something that really boils down the experience of hubski - the following of people, the building of relationships, the serendipitous findings of new things and original content that comes with following people over a forum based on one topic, etc.

I think the JS is well done and pretty, but can it capture these things as it points out the elements?

I am in no way 100% attached to slides and won't be insulted if none of this gets used. I just want someway to introduce new users to the site thats inviting and captures what hubski is all about and allows new users to be guided a little bit so they don't just see a wall of text and peace out.

Perhaps we can take a look at the intro.js and find a way to integrate more of the bigger picture as well as the specific elements.
