Do you "get" our super-short explanatory video?

Hi guys, it would be great to get some feedback on our latest video, explaining our product. We had some trouble to make people "get" it quickly what our product is all about. Have we improved?

is this mostly for marketing agencies and stuff? i'm not sure why i'd want to buffer my tweets, instead of just send them right away.

  Thanks for your comment. Actually it's not specifically for marketing and agencies, although they will certainly find it useful. The main reason, why many people want to buffer their tweets atm, is because they are intersted in having a planned out timeline on twitter. They can sit down at one point, whilst they are browsing the web and then add tweets to their buffer. It just optimises twitter efforts, if you can't be around all day. Sometimes you come across more than one great article you want to share, so instead of flooding your followers, you can spread them out with Buffer. You think that would help? :)

    Why not start the video with some form of that explanation? Right now, it seems to assume a visitor already wants to delay batches of tweets, but has been frustrated by 'scheduling' in other tools. Also, my questions about any such tool would be when do the buffered tweets actually fire, and if I can control that timing, and if Chrome has to be open when they do. The video offers no hints.

      Gojomo, really good stuff, many thanks. Well, we have pre-set the times at time slots which are best for most people. Anyone can easily change these times though. Nope, chrome is not a "have to" thing, you can if you wish. You can be sleeping in your bed and the tweets will fire! :)

    Personally, I don't think my followers would mind me sending 2-3 tweets within 5 minutes if they contained informative, non-robotic messages. I still just don't see the point, unless I'm missing something. shrug I think your design looks real good, though.
