Re: [activities] Re: [SLUG] Video from SLUG June 2011 is up!

Hello Samuel,

You've lost me. What is Disqus?

As I understand it, Tim has two cameras and has them on the slides and the
speaker - which appears to work extremely well for the presentations.

The main problem, with input from the audience in the room is the sound.
Panning the camera to see the audience provided an interesting, change, but
would probably be too distracting for anyone tuning in for the talks.

The speaker can't seen the IRC channel, so it is really upto the MC or
someone in the audience to relay any comments coming in via IRC. I, as the 
MC at the last meeting, found it difficult to read the IRC channel. 
However, there were people in the audience, in the room, monitoring it.

Checking out the video Tim recorded and uploaded single handedly, as well
as giving a talk and making an announcement - I am impressed. I don't think
it needs any post production. However, given the video is published with
> Creative Commons Attribution license (reuse allowed) 
post production by others is allowed.

Has anyone checked out Dimdim?
