I've added the article to the Insider, but I feel we need to promote
this campaign on a.k.o too(as a blog post). Basically, as part of the
campaign we ask users to send us their screenshots and screencasts,
and we'll upload them to Amarok's Flickr and Youtube accounts, also
giving them appropriate credit. A few more things that need to be done
:
1) In the screenshots section on ako, post a link to the official
Flickr account.
2) Add a new section on a.k.o by the name screencasts, so that users
can discover more features in amarok when they visit the site for the
first time.
3) Create a new section on a.k.o, which includes links to Amarok's
twitter, facebook, and, other social profiles.
