 Not happy at all. Pissed off actually. Repairs costs already were
 nearing AUD$2000.00. And starting a brand new MAJOR development
 without my little red girl - I am not happy.

 On top of that a bloke borrowed a 19 monitor and haven't heard from
 him since.

 Apologies to Adobe for not being as active in the you-know-what beta
 test after all this aggrivation!

 Sigh! sometimes this IT passion sucks!

 I mean, if you've got a laptop with a mic, and an internet connection,
 that's all you need. You start the meeting in Connect, and hit record. You
 don't need to bother with letting others join in, if that's a concern. And
 you DEFINITELY don't need to worry about a camera for video. All people care
 about is the presenter's screen and voice.

 Not trying to be pushy, but that just sounds like a great session, so it
 would be wonderful to see it recorded.

 Doubt it Charlie. We have used Connect in the past to do an online user
 group presentation. I don't think it is really practical to record our user
 group meeting's content.

 Cheers

[cfaussie] RIA Conference announcement , Queenstown NZ

2007-03-11 Thread Grant Straker

Hi All,

Just to let you all know Straker  are running a conference Web on the
Piste, which will based on Rich Internet technologies at Queenstown
in late August (incidentally the best week for lots of snow on the
slopes) for anyone interested. The idea is that it is 6 months between
WebDU's and will catch newly released products such as Apollo and CF8
(thinking they might be released by then) and give everyone a chance
to network in an awesome location. The aim is to cover Flex, Apollo,
AJAX, SPRY and all the various back end systems including CF, .Net,
PHP etc. The conference is for designers, developers and anyone
looking at utilizing RI technologies in their applications, it has an
Adobe base but we will try and cover a wide range of RI and back end
solutions.

We are bringing down a few guests from the US who have been very
active in implementing RI solutions so we can learn from them as well
as a number of well known regional speakers. Sessions will be a couple
of hours long and attendees will need to bring a laptop to a lot of
the sessions as they will be interactive learning sessions so that you
can interact and learn from the presenters.

It's currently a 2 day conf but may push out to 3 if people are
interested in more sessions. The schedule and topics are still in
development but should be finalised in the next month or two.

If anyone is interested in being a speaker or a sponsor then let me
know.

Here's the URL

www.webonthepiste.com

Cheers

Grant

[cfaussie] Re: QLD CFUG March meeting announcement.

2007-03-11 Thread Charlie Arehart

Barry and I discussed it off-list. They have a common problem, working in a
place where they don't have wireless access, and while there's a computer in
the room which does have net access, it belongs to the facility and they
don't want any software installed, so the presenters instead just plug their
laptops into the projector. All that makes recording using tools like
Breeze/Connect/LiveMeeting impossible.

We did discuss options for recording off-line, using tools such as
Camtasia, CamStudio, and so on. He will consider those, but then you're
talking about installing s/w on the presenter's laptops, and they have to
have time to become familiar to do the recording, plus they would be big
(though both the above can compress to SWF when done). Then you have to find
a place to host the recordings, and I recommended Google video, which has no
time limit like youtube and aol video. We shall see if they can do it. I'll
understand if they can't. I'll be writing all this up in a blog entry to
offer the suggestions to other CFUG organizers.
