Amazing. It´s my favorite. There are many colleagues that arrive to the 
distribution and they have to look for other sites how to do these 
things. It would be nice to have all this content on the Fedora´s 
official site.

One last question? Which video format will we use for it? .ogg or .webm 
are two good video formats compatible with the majority of web browsers 
and are included on the support of HTML´s video tag.

What do you think?
