Thanks for the feedback. I'm bummed that you were bored, but that is good to know.
We can definitely talk about the product. It is actually pretty compelling, so I think that would be pretty easy to do. I thought about doing something like that for the elevator pitch thing on TechCrunch.

I read fast so fixed speed text makes me uncomfortable...
We thought about speeding it up quite a bit. 2 people have commented that it too slow. With you, I'd put 3 in that camp.
Make it four. It's really frustrating to have to read two words at a time in places. To shorten the video and keep people reading combine slides. There were two that were "...global community and..." "...diversity..." that could have easily been one. The point is to get your message across, not show me as many pretty pictures as you can.
Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, part of the point with the pictures was to try to get a certain kind of feeling/mood across. Text is pretty bad at doing that. However, if it is too long and things need to be combined, then I think we can still get the general feel across with combined words and slides.
I would have preferred 1 minute where you have a voiceover actor explain your mission, then 2 minutes where you go through the product. There's a web 2.0 marketplace where you can hire voiceover actors cheaply, or do it yourself. If you really can't talk about the product, I would still recommend having a voice talking about the mission.
