Visio Premium 2010 supports modeling a SharePoint workflow. This functionality is not available in Visio Standard or Professional. A business or process analyst can model a workflow in Visio then hand it off to a developer, power user or site administrator to configure and deploy the workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010. This process can work the other way around as well. You can take an existing workflow in SharePoint Designer 2010 and export it to be viewed in Visio Premium 2010 without any loss of functionality or settings.

Good overview. Some time at the beginning of the video discussing the problem to be solved and the lists/objects invovled would be helpful.
I found this very informative and helpful from the Visio perspective. Needs to be a team site should be mentioned as publishing sites do not have a announcements list!
Perhaps you should also follow through on showing that the Team Discussion was created as it was – Good job!
