ASSIGNMENT: Write a summary of Mahalo Tutorial #2: Creating High-Traffic Pages
Here's what we want...Someone to go to the Mahalo Tutorials page, watch the video titled "Mahalo Tutorial #2: Creating High Traffic Pages" and create a "guide" to the information found in that video. Keep a running tally of the time elapsed in each video, so the information is easy to find. The format can be similar to the "Tutorial #1 Notes and Tips" section, only with the timecode available.
Make it look like this:
2:48 (or 2 minutes and 48 seconds into the video) - Lon discusses how to select a category for your page. To do so, just click the Edit button next to "Category" and then select your category from the drop-down menu.
3:15 - Lon answers a question about Fast Facts. He suggests doing blah blah blah.
Do that for the whole video. Post your assignment here in the thread. The first one to post a response here and do a great job wins the M$7 tip. If this goes well, I'll continue posting these assignments here.

I would only add that I think this should become a task that is claimed by a user and not an open question. That way one person can spend their time creating the answer without others worrying about wasting their time unnecessarily.
It does seem to have worked, though. Only one person did it and we got a great answer!
