16. OBSTACLES
We started to use more complex interactions, but they
weren't specific to specific use cases.
Needed something that lived "above" use cases or stories.
Needed to explain these interactions and get buy-in from
the business.

17. SOLUTION
1. Create small PDFs that acted as "educational material" that
could be passed out to anyone.
2. Make them standardized, so that you could give several of
them and people could understand lots of information in a
short amount of time.
3. Define "What", "Where", "How" and "Where else" on the
internet to foster buy-in.
