From LINQ to SilverLight – Watch videos and hear about all the cool technologies coming and the people behind them. http://channel9.msdn.com/Niners/scobleizer/Discussions en Sun, 19 May 2013 07:59:50 GMT Sun, 19 May 2013 07:59:50 GMT Rev9 0 0 0 Coffeehouse - Do X, and the C9 Interviews will be better. If every computer on campus were the same, this might be workable. Most computer cards don't have Svideo out. Certainly none of the laptop/Tablet ones do.

I wish such a magic solution existed, but, alas, none do.

It's not just my opinion. Believe me we've brainstormed about this.

The magic of channel 9 is its spontaneity and the low-fear factor that the participants have. If someone started messing with my computer my fear factor would go up by a factor of 10. Especially if I was expected to give you a demo. Would it work after loading some software or doing something else weird to the computer? I wouldn't know until I tried the demo again.

And, many of the "screen capture" softwares require changing the resolution of the output (ever seen output of a 1900x1200 screen played back at 320x240? I have and you can't read it). So, a panning and zooming camera will do a lot better.

And, Charles is right. The Sony that he has is WAY better at zooming in on the screen.

As for my participation. I told you you won't be able to get rid of me. Bwwwaaahhhhaaahhhhaaaaa.

Doing screen captures is just impractical for the Channel 9 team. We get a lot of interviews because we get in, do the interview, and get out.

Doing screen capture software would make that process MUCH longer and would make editing much harder too.

Communism just wasn't that motivating. I'd rather go to the beach. Capitalism holds a reward out there for working harder. Maybe some get it, maybe some don't, but it's out there so more people work harder under this system.

If you don't understand how people think and how they'll keep adding value to society over time you'll never grok why capitalism works and continues to do so.

Robert,

Am I taking that you are going to do this same sort of video interview thing with podtech?  What would be cool is if you figured something out so you could post those podtech interviews here too.  Kinda of give Channel 9 a cross-industry feel.

I'm sorry to hear you are leaving, strangely more disappointed to see you go to a Web 2.0 startup.

But if you are, there is one industry that will embrace podcasting like none other:  education.  Look into it.  I was talking to a few people high up in both US and UK colleges and Unis the other day and its really seen as the big thing.  Vlogging, though, as I have always said, is a bunch of useless crap where only pretty vloggers get any hits!



I'll be trying a bunch of different things, not just video interviews.

If he believes that Blogs are social networks, and if they are then do they follow known patterns like Dunbar's number, and the Small world phenomenon.

Or adversily if they are a form of meta-system in which opinion, social contact and news come together to form a new medium of contact and information sharing.

Further more what drives the blogger? Is it a sense of ego gratification in which they receive an ego boost from third party attention, and feel special / important, which has a positive effect on their self-esteem. Or perhaps a way to eliminate frustration from day to day life (e.g. an outlet) or maybe they believe that blogging is a pathway into a career into journalism or another field?


It's the extra sex we get. Women are attracted to bloggers.

Don't believe it? Check this out: http://www.jetsetblog.com/travel/2006/05/scoble_is_sexy.html
