I have people ask me about gliding all the time. I always send them to the http://www.letsgogliding.com/ site and forward them links for Bruno Vassel or Balleka videos on YouTube.








Does anyone else have any favorite sites that they send people to in order for them to get interested in gliding?




Not a direct answer, but the LGG site could be much better than it is. Anyone with web development skills want to volunteer to make it better?


What would you add? It's simply a promo/intro site. A content management system elsewhere to capture the inquiring mind might be useful. But for the first time viewer, the LGG site remains appropriate for its intended audience.

The cardinal rule of web development is to answer the question 'who's your audience?'

Getting people to the web site is more important. Could we redress the images and verbage? Sure. Could we test a different video? Yes. Who's your audience?
