I'm in different because it's "reality" Television; with "television" being the operative word. We can talk about how it misrepresents the real Silicon Valley (Note: Which I know nothing about) but let's not forget, that it's a business and not a non profit. So the objective of the creators has been achieved: 1)Tell an entertaining story, 2)Get people to promote it by talking/blog about it about because they love or hate it, and 3) know that the promotion will bring eyeballs/ratings which leads to underpants and profits! At least for one season, it's mission accomplished for Randi.

What you are saying makes total sense. Unless you were presenting or a vendor at a conference, there would not be a need for you to use it. The only time I wish I had doccaster was when I went to CES. All the paper, brochures and people made me feel overloaded. That's when a product like this becomes handy because it allows you to view the location, see the vendors, grab their documents and have a conversation if needed from the lobby of the convention floor.

Thank Larrys for the feedback. The product video was modeled off other web 2.0 intro videos (Dropbox 2min, Linkedin 2:35min) and was designed to provide first time users with an overview. We tried to create the stumbling blocks in the beginning b recreating events that commonly take place in the sharing of documents that the viewer would relate too. Probably, could have done better. Ultimately, we hope the video sparks interest by showing people the advantage of using our system over traditional document distribution methods. Thanks again.
