Reshare examples on reddit #60

Thanks @vsoch for the idea, which I like

To promote the greatness of DataLad we should spread the word on popular and generic media about its features. https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/ is one of such possible portals worth sharing at. It should be easy to take our examples, and post there (possibly condenced a bit or just recasted into whatever markup language reddit takes - never posted yet), and link them at the end of each screencasted section. This way we could get possible feedback as well from reddit folks.

Could also be posted as gist on github I guess. Anywhere else?

Definitely in support of this! I think before doing an effort to post en masse, the site itself could use a little rebranding to look a little cleaner, less academic... I'm sad to admit this, but if it's not flawless and beautiful it will fail to capture a lot of folk that expect that kind of association with their software.
