10Questions is the first truly people-powered online presidential forum that seeks to involve millions of voters in prioritizing the questions they want answered, and moving politicians away from sound-bites to in-depth discussion of issues.

This forum pulls questions from multiple video sharing sites based on tags. Anyone with access to YouTube, MySpace Yahoo Video, Blip.tv, or TeacherTube. can submit a question. To enter, upload your video question to one of these sites and tag it "10Questions." Be sure to give it a descriptive title so others can find it. Feel free to add additional tags, which will make it easier for people to discover your video using our search tool.

Enter your username or the title of your video in the "Search" box on the front page of 10Questions.

Go to the Search box on the front page of 10Questions and type in the issue or topic. If someone has used that word as a tag, it will pull up their video.

You can click on the "email" link below any video to forward it to friends. You can also embed a video in a webpage or blog by using the "Embed" code found under a video. Even if it is not your video, you can use these tools if it is one you want to share with others. See the Action page for more details.

It takes time to index your questions. If you just uploaded your video, check back in a few hours. It can take up to half a day for a video to appear here. You should also check your tags to make sure you've included "10Questions," all one word.

If you think a question should be answered, click the thumbs up. If you think the question should be ignored, click the thumbs down. If you don't have an opinion, don't vote.

Once Round Two starts, and the candidates start posting their answers, you will be able to view them and vote on them. If you think a reply actually answered the question, click the thumbs up. If you think it did not, click the thumbs down. If you don't have an opinion, don't vote.

No. Visitors can vote on as many videos as they like, but only one vote will be allowed per IP address. Additionally, the top ten videos will have their votes audited, taking additional factors into account to guard against anyone artificially stuffing the ballot box.

You. 10questions is entirely egalitarian. If a group can mobilize its supporters to vote for a video en masse, their topic will benefit. However, the larger the number of overall participants, the more representative the top questions. Additionally, votes are limited to one per IP address, and upon the close of Round One, the top ten videos will have their votes audited to further guard against ballot box stuffing.

In principle, we are open to third-party presidential candidates posting their answers to the top ten questions, so long as 1) they are running for the nomination of a third party that has achieved or is likely to achieve a line on the ballot in enough states to hypothetically win an electoral college majority, 2) have a web site.

We're using the symbol as a catch-all for spam or problematic videos. You can flag videos for administrative attention if you think they are spam, broken, or inappropriate by clicking on that red circle.

Videos that we have identified as spam are never removed from the site. They are only moved, and can be found under the spam tab. This way it's entirely clear what it means for a video to be spam. If you think a video has been improperly categorized as spam, hit the button to bring it to our attention.

When you vote on a new video, the counts below the video should change to reflect this. If they do not, it means your IP address has already cast a vote for that video. If you are using a shared computer it is possible someone has already used it to vote. Additionally, if you are sharing an internet connection your local area network may not distinguish between individual computers, providing 10Questions with a single IP. If this is the case consider voting from somewhere else.
