    Can't answer yes or no:

    We do have video capability on what we call "Senate Talk" but this Q&A part of the platform is just text and links. The space is designed to be calm and manageable. We help you build knowledge for the long term and the design reflects this. Adding pictures can help it be more fun and lighthearted but does not act as a store of knowledge. Having said that, adding the video capability on the other side of our platform is awesome - you can add training videos and even host powerpoints. You can also link to them from here like this.

    Be useful, be helpful, be accurate and be kind.
