David, Having an introductory video to _Boost_ is problematic since there's no one thing called "Boost". Instead, it's a collection of often disparate libraries. Each of the libraries could reasonably be featured in its only "getting started" video. However, if the point is to _sell_ the whole Boost idea, then one alternative would be to bypass the details of syntax and function calls of the various libraries in favor of a "Why do you need Boost" talk/pitch/video. Talk about what kind of everyday problems it solves for you rather than trying to explain the nitty gritty (and 200 levels of nested template declarations) of each library. The pitch would verbally sketch (i.e. probably no code) a real world programming problem, then point out what the Boost library has to help out. A series of problem sketches would allow the pitch to cover a lot of otherwise disjoint Boost functionality and still make sense. Merrill
