Ok!

Also keep in mind that the message will have the video IN the message (and it autoplays) so the message beneath it is largely for reference.

most who dont get the fight club reference wil think they get it becaus eof the title at the beginning of the video

Why can’t we do both and compare the numbers?

Our own little version of A/B testing...we do what we can.
 

That’s how we learn …

I'm sorry, I must insist on the Twitter post! I think people will get it, and those that don't will shortly thereafter because everyone who does will inform them about it-

Hi guys, 

The blog post is now live:


I too share Juliet’s concern that most people will not understand  "I am Jack's cancer research”. 

So I recommend we start with a clearer message:

High school student Jack Andraka used Wikipedia to research a new test for cancer [LINK]

This will insure that a lot of people click on it, because everyone loves a success story about a student that helped cure cancer.

As a follow-up, I think it would be fine to use the more cryptic line, which will resonate with people who get it.

Would love to see the numbers next week, to see the clickthrough for both messages.

Congrats to Victor and Yoona for a really compelling human-interest story!

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone!


Fabrice

Maybe I'm being dense but I don't get it :/ What's the thinking behind "I am Jack's cancer research" and do you think people will get it?

Actually I'd like all of them to be :

It's friday - I think everyone will like it

Could we do this one:

f/g: I am Jack's cancer research [LINK] #openaccess

on Twitter? It's like Wikipedia is saying "I am Jack's cancer research" which is true!
