It may very well better and easier to put these videos on a service like Vimeo, Blip.tv, or YouTube.
Jim, I’m with ya, and George and I are going to discuss that very thing next week. The issue really is the capture and rip for Web thing — The broadcast services that do that for you are expensive. But Vimeo professional is kind of a no-brainer to me. What do you think?
I am so happy to be able to watch Rick’s talk online, especially because I was not able to be there. Thanks to the Web and communications folks for making this happen. Also, a blog format is perfect for this newsletter. Kudos!
Might it be possible for someone also to post the slides that accompanied the presentation?
Cathy,
I agree, Vimeo professional is really nice, and gives you full control over the skin, etc. Additionally, of all the video services I’ve seen, Vimeo has the highest quality vide conversion. So yeah, Vimeo is a win.
By the way, kudos to our esteemed Clint Often for all his work in recording and ripping this video for the Web. Clint, you da bomb!
