We love the ridiculous amount of joy and happiness that gets spread around the internet and the world through gift exchanges, and we want even more people to be able to participate in the fun!

As you may have heard, we're going to be doing a 12-hour live-streaming video extravaganza on Black Friday: the redditgifts Shopping Network. It'll be part comedy variety show, part awesome-sales-and-deals-in-your-pajamas-rather-than-getting-trampled-at-Wal-mart, and part best-of reddit, with live AMAs and more. This will also be a great opportunity to tell people what is truly at the heart of redditgifts: our exchanges. And this is where we need your help.

We are currently putting together some videos about redditgifts, but just as the exchanges are more fun when more people join, we think these videos will be more fun with you involved, too. So what is it we want you to do? Create a video that does one (or more!) of the following:

Explain why you love participating in redditgifts exchanges

Show ALL the gifts you have gotten from all the exchanges you have ever participated in

Tell about your best exchange experience (either giving or receiving).

If you want to share in the excitement and potentially become famous on Black Friday, we'd love to have you, but with one caveat: please keep your videos brief. Definitely under one minute, ideally 30 seconds or less (unless you're responding to multiple prompts, in which case you can use 30 seconds for each). We're looking for super-condensed awesomeness from you. After you've created your video, you can email us the file (mp4 or mov) to rgsn@redditgifts.com or give us the YouTube link either via email or in the comments to this post.

Making videos sound like too much work for you? Here's the really easy lazy version: Give us the links to any of your previous posts in the gift gallery (photo or video) that you're okay with us using in these videos. Again, you can just tell us in the comments on reddit (if you want to link to your stuff, great, but since this is the lazy option, you can also just state that you give us permission, and we can find the things you've posted ourselves) or email us with your consent. (If you email, make sure you include your username so we can find your stuff!)

Thank you!
