Web minisite for RPG newbies

Hi, I'd love to introduce new players to the hobby, but there seems to be very little online information, other than a couple of embarrassing YouTube videos, I can point people to.

Is there any chance you could develop a newbie minisite? Something that answers the very very basic questions: What is tabletop roleplaying? What gear do I need to get started? What goes on in a typical game session? How difficult is it to get involved? Am I a nerd if I play? Etc.

Also, down the track, might it be possible to set up some instructional videos, perhaps something similar to what Fantasy Flight does for its LCG line?

I think having a separate minisite for newbies would be a great way to showcase what we do to the uninitiated without cluttering them with information about products that mean nothing to them yet. It would also be a fantastic support tool for those of us trying to promote the hobby.

It's a great idea but I don't know who here would have the time to maintain it. Right now the best thing we have to introduce new players is the Beginner Box.

How about a beginners FAQ for now? Is something like that feasible?
