I think they could put there at least some joke... We will be smarter.

Our timing could be after AE release, so what we will definitely need is a picture/banner 580x270, but the text must be redable in smaller format, cca 320x150

There are also “2nd generation”cryptocurrencies claiming to have been built independent of Bitcoin, one of the most prominent being Nxt.

so we will hire Fatih87SK then

If he is up to it, great. Smiley

Damelon,

What we're they supposed to deliver?

Can you write down what you want? Maybe some examples.
Then I can tell you guys if I can deliver what they supposed to do.

Hey Fatih,

What they were supposed to do was something like this: http://www.slideshare.net/GrahamRobertson/how-to-write-a-brand-plan

So: not the áctual promo material and brandéd material, but the underlying brand itself.

The slideshow gives a pretty good impressing of what a brand actually is.
A brand represents the "vision" and strategy for Nxt and includes, but is not limited to the visuals.
That's why I made that questionnaire. I still have them and think they can be of use.
I also still think we need a "branding" as it will force us to define at least á vision instead of the "all over the place" approach we have now. Smiley


By the way, they called me tonight and at least will give us a business card and their plan for a landing page.
Apparently they feel bad, too, mainly towards me. So when I get these, we might still be able to use it.

Jimmy Wales is discussing wikipedia potentially accepting bitcoins on reddit

http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/201fa6/hello_from_jimmy_wales_of_wikipedia/


Interesting quote

Quote
What I've said for a long time continues to be true. I'm "cautiously pessimistic" about Bitcoin.
What I mean by that is that I'm loving the idea but I see a lot of real problems. One of my concerns is that the complexity of it all will hinder adoption.
I also have concerns that are perhaps born out of a lack of full understanding. What happens when BTC mining returns drop significantly lower than costs? Will transactions fees be sufficient to induce miners to continue participating?
But I'm not forecasting doom for BTC. I'm cautious. I don't know enough to say for sure.

Wikipedia potentially accepting bitcoins. It looks like he is afraid of Bitcoin and he's right. Maybe he would like Nxt gateway. Use it for NXT, BTC, and altcoins? He should at least know about our possibilities.

Wikipedia.org update!

Hey guys,
I finished creating new english version of Nxt wiki page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:NXT

We have a very nice german version, but you cannot simply translate the text - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nxt - you need to use new citations in used language.

So it also means this article cannot be translated into languages where are missing published articles in that particular language.

I think now it needs only some grammar corrections and more wiki links and it should finally work. 22 citations could be enough
Great.
I tried 2 times for Chinese version,but failed.
I will try again.

chanc3r is confirmed, yes.
He took days off work for this.

Do we already have a speaker spot, or is he there as technical question guy for now? If he has to speak, we need to know on what. Wink

I don't know about others, so can't comment on passes, except to say that if we add others we must have passes.

Good that Ebereon will help. So that means we have a RaspPi. Let's get that confirmed as soon as he is back.

Can you take care of the press accreditation? Or do we need to do something else. Just give me the word if you need anything from me or him.



In reverse order:
Press accreditation means a letter from a recognised press organisation. Here are the rules:
Quote
Media pass
Only actively covering, legitimate media will be considered for a media pass. Analysts, Market Researchers, Marketing/Advertising firms, etc. are not included in the Bitcoin 2014 definition of legitimate media. If you fall into this category, but are a contributor to an outlet that meets our qualifications, you must be on assignment, and provide a Letter of Assignment from your Editor. Passes will be confirmed on a case-by-case basis and are not guaranteed solely through the EventBrite registration. Once approved for a Media pass, you will receive an e-mail confirmation from the Bitcoin 2014 team that will provide further details.
If your camera dude has press affiliation, he should be able to get his editor to sign off on a Letter of Assignment. AT5 will probably cover him, if they can use some of his material.
In order to get press accreditation, you have to get a friendly news organisation on board, or set one up yourself.

RaspPi will happen, gonna wait for Ebereon, unless someone else in Europe with RPSolar experience wants to jump in.
Or I'll just build it myself.......might need help with the Linux bits tho'.

Chanc3r: It's great that he's stepped up. Adds much needed technical depth to the team. I (or someone, but we are in the INF-COM together)  should have a chat with him soon, find out what he would like to do (keynote speech, panel, q+A ) , get some background info and then get on to the BTC Foundation to get him on the program.

Conference is looking good, though:

Is our speaker completely confirmed, Damelon?

I've sent the stand billing to Salsacz, but how many more passes do we need?

Looking into RaspPi building, Ebereon will help, but is AFK for the next 10 days or so.

Need to get promo material. Do we recycle stuff from Berlin and Texas or make our own?

If Damelons camera dude can get press accreditation, we can get him in on a media pass for free.
I could also try to get an extra media pass by engaging evil, sneaky mode.

I'm off back to INF.....

Damelon:
Shit happens and some people are just plain unreliable.
I could trot out another line of cliches about success versus failure, but I won't.
Except to say that failure is just part of business, and all we've lost is some of your time. Sorry....

Still, we do already have pretty good and almost coherent branding. Maybe it could do with a little tidying up?
Sounds like a good project for a newly elected marketing committee......or:
so we will hire Fatih87SK then

Update on the branding:

- I have been terribly frustrated this week, because the people I asked didn't deliver
- Today, I decided to call them again and give them a last chance to come up with something to actually show and use.
- The agreement I have with them now is that I decide if it's good enough to form a basis to continue work, or to stop.
- If I think it's good enough, I will show it here. If it is not, i will inform you here.

I find it very frustrating to work with people who don't deliver and am quite angry right now.

This weekend we wíll have an answer to this and I sincerely hope it will work out.
If not, my commitment stands, and I will continue in a different way to work on this, as it ís important!

 Angry

Well, two days since this post ánd their promise to deliver and ZILCH.

Tomorrow, I am going to call them and tell them I am cancelling this and to express my disappointment with their attitude.

I will also compile the questionnaires that you all have sent in, so at least that work won't be for nothing.
I still think we need resources like this, so will be thinking on how to get these. If anyone has any ideas on that, the field is once again wide open.

I am ashamed that this has come to nothing and am truly sorry for the fact that this has fallen through.
