Is there audio of Borz answering these questions?  The questions and answers sound so fake.  I thought 777 was for people to talk to Borz, not blog some predetermined questions.  Stuff like this makes me scratch my head about xby.  The whole time Borz is portrayed as reclusive programmer, non native english speaker who let's CCR do all the business.  Now all of a sudden Borz is talking about SEO, branding, and breaking down detailed marketing campaigns?  This sounds like some generic filler written by the old random guy hired to write for XBY.  I have a hard time believing that this is really borz giving these answers, and that these are actually the questions that the community wanted answered.

There was a format change to the 777. Announced here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1864397.msg25933481#msg25933481

Borz 777 Format Change:

The idea of Borzalom 777 was initially to allow the community some interaction with Borzalom, so you can see he is real and also to get some basic technical questions answered.

We have always been careful to choose questions we were willing to answer, without giving away critical details. This is extremely important for the XTRABYTES community because the ideas that Borzalom is bringing to you are cutting edge ideas and we must make sure that we are first to market with these ideas. Otherwise, we are doing you a dis-service with your investments and commitments to the betterment of our amazing project by letting out all our secrets before we are even ready to capture the lions share of the market.

What we have noticed over the progression, leading up to our 3rd edition of 777, is that people are coming with more and more technically specific questions (questions that are solutions to problems) and the decision has been made to draw a line in the sand.

We have once again selected 7 questions that we are willing to answer but this will be the last time this session is done this way. In the future, we will have a dedicated team taking care of this and the questions and answers will come from them, based on where we are at that moment in time on our technical journey.

We will have things explained in layman's terms so that the masses can understand clearly what we are doing, without getting into the technical details that other projects need in order to take our ideas before we are able to bring them to market.

For the January 7th edition, we have 3 questions answered by the writer's team, 2 by CCRevolution and 2 by Borzalom himself. In the end, we believe the same result will be achieved because the point of all this is to answer some of the questions that the XTRABYTES community has. We still have Borzalom review these answers of course and he is actually doing his review while I write this opening statement.

I can confirm that all questions answered came from the Google Form that was filled out by members of the community.

Got it.  Thanks for the clarification.  It is confusing b/c the blog was titled "777: XTRABYTES’ February Q & A With Borzalom",so naturally one would think it was Borz giving the answers.
