April 8 weekly article

This week professor Zurcher asked everyone to review projectgramgram for the article review. I am a part of project gram gram so I decide to review what we are doing and what I think we can do a little better.
Several people have mentioned to us already that it’s annoyingly unclear if this is a real service or not. I think that our group needs to meet up and decide how we want to handle that- if we want to try to actually make it real, or just do a kicker starter, or find some other way to make it clear that is just an idea to get people to talk to their grandmas.
So far we have had a pretty good reception of the video, and we’ve already surpassed our goal views of 5k. We put some money to boost it but most of the stats say that the video is spending organically. We all plan to keep sharing it in our personal networks and to reach out to as many people as possible. Personally I plan to share the video tomorrow or Monday just that we spread out the sharing so its not happening all at once, and so that the people who have been seeking it and not watching it will be curious by the continued postings. I also plan to reach out to my friends in other states (Texas and California specifically) to hopefully increase out spread.
Our team was talking today about the viewing stats, and lots of people stop watching at the minute mark, so Dave and Brad are going to try to create a minute version so that we can catch people before they stop. The team needs to develop a new strategy for sharing this video since it will be the same thing, and we can’t use the exact same spreading resources to share it.
All in all I think we are all very happy with how well it is spreading so far, and hopefully we have inspired people to reach out to their grandparents.
