Seriously Mobile Archive Update & Video Blogging
The Seriously Mobile Video Archive from 22 March has been updated to include all presentations and videos, a discussion area for the Experts Panel and the video of Forterra Systems Massively Multiplayer Online Environment.
You can also email specific presentations to your colleagues, and send the video clips to your mobile phone! Thanks to Datmedia for compiling and hosting the archive!
There has been so much interest in audio and video podcasting/blogging I thought I would experiment with a few more free tools in advance of the workshop we're planning.
One of the things you will need to make your audio and video "casts" available to others is a hosting service. There are a few free ones available. I've had bad luck with the speed of Ourmedia and have now tried Castpost - 100 meg of free hosting won't get you far but is great for experimentation.
Here's an example of a video clip you have to wait to download, then play. It's a clip from Forterra and highlights a few of the military uses of their platform in addition to the corporate, medical, emergency response and security examples we showed at our Seriously Mobile event.
Note the difference between streaming video (instant playback requiring a streaming media server and properly encoded video), and this method which is slower but works for those that want to take the video with them for viewing offline and on mobile devices.
Powered by Castpost
Using a service like Castpost is helpful because most blogs don't enable you to upload large media files. Castpost will automatically create a blog posting for you or give you the code to put it in your own posts as I've done here.
