Jen Brea's TED talk sounded amazing and should go up on YouTube at some (unknown) point.
From another thread:
Discuss!
From another thread:
Sasha said:What can we do to promote the video? It sound like we've got a chance of something fantastic going viral?
And, importantly, we should leave a comment underneath telling newbies how they can help. From the tweets, it sounds as though Jen has suggested people join the network and wait to hear about the next big push but they can also donate - to Canary, to #MEA, to Ron Davis's End ME/CFS Project via the OMF...
[...] Do you think we should start a new "How can we promote Jen Brea's TED talk?" thread?
Presumably it will go bigger if it has velocity, and will have more velocity if we've got our act together ahead of time?
@@JenB, @@JaimeS, do you know when we can expect the video link?
JaimeS said:Jen and I are both fully crashed -- her from the talk, and me from the NIH RFI -- but we have nonetheless been talking about the best and most strategic time to release the video, given what else #MEAction is doing. We want to maintain the excitement and forward momentum, but we also recognize that releasing information in a more planned manner creates a closely-knit narrative that the media can follow and use to make a bigger story, and the biggest possible splash.
It would be great to have some advance notice around here so that people can know to show up and tweet and re-tweet and like on Facebook and so on... of course we want that vid to be everywhere. I'm thinking that I will write an article a bit before it's to be released to give everyone advance notice.
[...] yes, @@Sasha let's start a thread on brainstorming how to promote the talk!
Discuss!
