Cold Shower Challenge - Don’t ever say we don’t love you all!

Posted by Darius Bashar on November 12th, 2008

This was due to the fact that we have never gotten so much slack for a challenge before. Yes we realize it is the middle of November and this challenge was probably much better suited for August, but Do Gooders are a bit crazy anyways and can have fun doing any challenge.

Hope you enjoy the video! :)

P.S. This is obviously not a professional production so my apologize for the poor quality.

Daily Challenge Video Tutorials Now Available!

Posted by Verne Ho on November 12th, 2008

It’s been a while since Daily Challenge has been up and running, and as time goes on we keep adding more and more features to the site. So, as we continue to grow, we thought it would be a good idea to release some screencasts (or video tutorials) to help you get acquainted with how things work. The screencasts also aim to help new Do Gooders find their way around - a 2 minute Daily Challenge crash course, if you will.

I’ll try to release a few of these periodically, but for now, here are two new screencasts that cover some of the basic activities you can expect to be engaged in on Daily Challenge.

Your feedback is welcome! These are the first two screencasts I’ve ever done, so be kind. :)

Enjoy!

PS - Sorry for the quality of the videos! I assure you they looked a lot crisper before YouTube’s compression.
