8:09 pm Waterparkgirl: #Eventprofs Hi Miss Judy!
8:09 pm Perfectprod: #Eventprofs Hi Miss Judy!
8:09 pm JessicaLevin: @LightSpeedMgmt Welcome newbie. You won't be new for long. #eventprofs
8:09 pm lindseyhayzlett: Happy to see 2 industries #speakers and #eventprofs I focus on collaborate. I am a publicist for both. #eventprofs
8:09 pm spkrinteractive: @LightSpeedMgmt Welcome Mark. Great community here. #eventprofs
8:09 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive well, sort of implies content that is shareable and editable by multiple parties #eventprofs
8:10 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive media that is collaboratively created #eventprofs
8:10 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive Is there a difference between Collaborative media and social media/networking? #eventprofs
8:10 pm camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - More open source, users with control/controls, customization, "Crowdspring" #eventprofs
8:10 pm LightSpeedMgmt: Thanks everyone, and hello back! #eventprofs
8:10 pm lindseyhayzlett: I am constantly trying to learn more about what I do, and network. This is great!! #eventprofs
8:10 pm spkrinteractive: @lindseyhayzlett please also join #spkrchat on Tues the hour before #eventprofs
8:11 pm psalinger: @JessicaLevin good question - do we need a definition to start the conversation? #eventprofs
8:11 pm MeetCollab: collaborative media = read/write person to person virtually #eventprofs
8:11 pm MichaelMcCurry: Attn I am participating in a group chat.. if not interested plz filter and don't unfollow.. Thanks! #eventprofs
8:11 pm spkrinteractive: heh, many completely different definitions. #eventprofs
8:11 pm psalinger: @MeetCollab why just virtually? #eventprofs
8:11 pm spkrinteractive: Does anyone find it odd that so much video is getting created, but not much community being developed around that video? #eventprofs
8:12 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive well maybe it is a living definition as opposed to static #eventprofs
8:12 pm psalinger: Attn I am participating in a group chat.. if not interested plz filter and dont unfollow.. Thanks! #eventprofs
8:12 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive Are we talking about multi-dimentional communication? #eventprofs
8:13 pm MeetCollab: Video is hot because properly seo'd it can dominate search queries for the moment #eventprofs
8:13 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive yes, lots of viral nature, but haven't seen good examples of doing more with the content to create community #eventprofs
8:13 pm PinkDeb: Attn I am participating in a group chat.. if not interested plz filter and dont unfollow.. Thanks! #eventprofs (via @psalinger)
8:13 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry good point. It seems to be a moving target. In a good way. #eventprofs
8:13 pm jessrafferty: @MichaelMcCurry Good point #eventprofs
8:13 pm camerontoth: RT @lindseyhayzlett: I am constantly trying to learn more about what I do, and network. This is great!! #eventprofs
8:13 pm LightSpeedMgmt: Hello! I am participating in a group chat. If not interested please filter and don't unfollow. Thanks! #eventprofs
8:13 pm JessicaLevin: @jessrafferty Great to hear. i'm sure you rock it. #eventprofs
8:13 pm spkrinteractive: IMHO "media being the catalyst for a conversation and the online environment supporting that collaboration" #eventprofs
8:14 pm ready2spark: @spkrinteractive Q0: Broadcasting channels of which anyone can shape #eventprofs
8:14 pm MichaelMcCurry: Collaborative media evolves over time based upon the needs of the audience #eventprofs
8:14 pm JessicaLevin: RT @spkrinteractive: IMHO "media being the catalyst for a conversation and the online environment supporting that collaboration" #eventprofs
8:14 pm lindseyhayzlett: @spkrinteractive I will be on #spkrchat. Prof. speakers tug at my heart strings. They inspire me greatly while representing them #eventprofs
8:14 pm JessicaLevin: RT @MichaelMcCurry: Collaborative media evolves over time based upon the needs of the audience #eventprofs
8:14 pm camerontoth: RT @MichaelMcCurry: Collaborative media evolves over time based upon the needs of the audience #eventprofs
8:14 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry Well said Mike! #eventprofs
8:14 pm spkrinteractive: RT @ready2spark: Q0: Broadcasting channels of which anyone can shape --> that is a really good one #eventprofs
8:14 pm psalinger: @MichaelMcCurry good point, change happening fast so definitions need to be agile and adaptable to a point #eventprofs
8:14 pm MichaelMcCurry: Collaborative media = Shape shifting #eventprofs
8:15 pm psalinger: RT @spkrinteractive: IMHO "media being the catalyst for a conversation and the online environment supporting that collaboration" #eventprofs
8:15 pm JessicaLevin: RT @MichaelMcCurry: Collaborative media = Shape shifting #eventprofs
8:16 pm PinkDeb: Whst is IMHO #eventprofs
8:16 pm JessicaLevin: We do need something to be able to explain it to other and teach others how to engage in collaboration. #eventprofs
8:16 pm MeetCollab: collaborative media = many to many #eventprofs
8:16 pm MichaelMcCurry: We can't control media... it has a life of its own... we need to be receptive to morphing it #eventprofs
8:16 pm lindseyhayzlett: Collaborative media only works if you have a collaborative image #eventprofs
8:17 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry We are the new media. #eventprofs
8:17 pm camerontoth: @JessicaLevin - What are good Collaborative media sites and/or tools? #eventprofs
8:17 pm nicolejensen: @PinkDeb "in my humble opinion." #eventprofs
8:17 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive, @ready2spark - if it's a channel anyone can shape, how do u know u can trust it? #eventprofs
8:17 pm JessicaLevin: @lindseyhayzlett can you explain collaborative image? #eventprofs
8:17 pm camerontoth: @lindseyhayzlett ?? Collaborative image? #eventprofs
8:18 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin yes, Jessica with an emphasis on the word "we" #eventprofs
8:18 pm MeetCollab: could it be collaborative objective? #eventprofs
8:18 pm nicolejensen: @camerontoth An example would be Wikipedia, no? #eventprofs
8:18 pm spkrinteractive: @psalinger you don't, but that is a problem with any SM. It sorts itself out over time. Reputation is everything #eventprofs
8:18 pm psalinger: @MichaelMcCurry agree - control is history, but in morphing do we change the nature of a trusted source? #eventprofs
8:18 pm camerontoth: @all What are good Collaborative media sites and/or tools? #eventprofs
8:18 pm MichaelMcCurry: Media is not something you can plan... it just happens based upon the forces around it #eventprofs
8:19 pm camerontoth: @nicolejensen - I think Wikipedia is a great example! #eventprofs
8:19 pm lbbinc: i tweeted this video earlier as a different form of collaborative media #eventprofs http://bit.ly/42N51Z
8:19 pm JessicaLevin: @CameronToth Twitter. Tweetchat more specifically. What are we doing now? We are creating content. #eventprofs
8:19 pm MichaelMcCurry: @ready2spark Bingo.. yes it is self managed! #eventprofs
8:19 pm spkrinteractive: For the purpose of the rest of the chat, can we assume we are talking about channels where media sparks the conversation? #eventprofs
8:19 pm mmcallen: Attn I am participating in a group chat.. if not interested plz filter and don't unfollow.. Thanks! #eventprofs
8:20 pm psalinger: @ready2spark problem is too many readers fail to check facts (see Healthcare debate as example) #eventprofs
8:20 pm lindseyhayzlett: What are you portraying to media? What's your mission statement in life/biz - is it all collaborating? What image do u want? #eventprofs
8:20 pm JessicaLevin: What do we think of the role of traditional journalism in relation to this discussion? #eventprofs
8:20 pm camerontoth: @ready2spark - I don't think that is how many of the sites work. Wikipedia relies on registered checkers with a reputation. #eventprofs
8:20 pm nicolejensen: @ready2spark It's terrible. I'm not keen on the general public's IQ collapsing because they have to check facts & choose not to. #eventprofs
8:21 pm lbbinc: what's interesting is how much the "rules" of new media look like the old way of doing things, all @ experience & reputation #eventprofs
8:21 pm MichaelMcCurry: @psalinger Paul, IMO media is not always about the facts.. .sometimes its about the emotion or the passion #eventprofs
8:21 pm camerontoth: @psalinger - Great example but if you take a few minutes to read a bit more about subject matter the truth is findable #eventprofs
8:21 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin traditional journalism is dying a slow agonizing death #eventprofs
8:21 pm ready2spark: @camerontoth Wikipedia is one example. Blogs, chat groups, tweets are not monitored and are user-created content. #eventprofs
8:22 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry is the notion that perception is reality a good one? #eventprofs
8:22 pm ready2spark: @nicolejensen I hope it awakens ppl to understanding that just because they see it in print doesn't mean that it's true. #eventprofs
8:22 pm psalinger: @MichaelMcCurry well, I do agree with that - it can be very experiential, but how does that make the media collaborative? #eventprofs
8:22 pm MichaelMcCurry: @ready2spark Wikipedia is wonderful because it is "crowdsourcing" at its best #eventprofs
8:22 pm lindseyhayzlett: I feel there are many media opportunities for event industry that it's missing out on. After all, events are a part of PR #eventprofs
8:22 pm MeetCollab: @ready2spark fact checking is a function of self-leveling of consensus and acclimation #eventprofs
8:23 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry Some think it (journalism) will bounce back for a number of reasons. I don't agree, but I hear this a lot. #eventprofs
8:23 pm RTjournalism: RT @MichaelMcCurry @jessicalevin traditional journalism is dying a slow agonizing death #eventprofs
8:23 pm ready2spark: @nicolejensen Individuals need 2 take more responsibility in identifying truth from pomp. #eventprofs
8:23 pm psalinger: @camerontoth my concern is that in any channel we use it is often the first impression ppl believe #eventprofs
8:23 pm spkrinteractive: {moderator} Let's take it to a more tactical, less philosophical level... #eventprofs
8:24 pm camerontoth: @ready2spark - I like the model of some of the sites that offer money to winning artist/blogger/answerer. #eventprofs
8:24 pm JessicaLevin: Imagine a world without crowdsourcing. I use it every day. #eventprofs
8:24 pm spkrinteractive: {moderator} Q1 (5 mins) How can you use collaborative media pre-event? #eventprofs
8:24 pm mmcallen: @MichaelMcCurry wikipedia is wonderful but it also is dangerous, its not always checked... any hayseed can post #eventprofs
8:24 pm MichaelMcCurry: @psalinger because it has a granular synergy to it.... driven by passion, belief and creative energy #eventprofs
8:24 pm pcrerar: Paula Crerar here. Sorry to join so late. #eventprofs
8:24 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive as in, How do you actually do "collaborative media'? #eventprofs
8:24 pm ready2spark: @psalinger Do you think that there will be an evolution in our 'belief' in the written word? I.e. we'll eventually be wary? #eventprofs
8:24 pm mmcallen: @psalinger that I agree with. but now we have main stream media taking sides and "reporting" what they want for ratings #eventprofs
8:25 pm MichaelMcCurry: @pcrerar Hi Paula! #eventprofs
8:25 pm ZeristaSoftware: hi john kanarowski joining. sorry running late. #eventprofs
8:25 pm spkrinteractive: @psalinger yes. How can we as event profs use it to make our events better (pre-event for now) #eventprofs
8:25 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive I think as suggested earlier you could think about creating community around content as a way into longer convo #eventprofs
8:25 pm ready2spark: @spkrinteractive Identifying seminar topics relevant 2 attendees. #eventprofs
8:25 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive to gather data about what issues are important to the audience. Presentations may change based on feedback. #eventprofs
8:26 pm camerontoth: I think people have turned to the internet for their news for one of two reasons #eventprofs
8:26 pm mmcallen: People using search use what has the best SEO as fact (the first page on Google) #eventprofs
8:26 pm MeetCollab: @ready2spark we are participating in the evolution of the written word #eventprofs
8:26 pm camerontoth: One because they can search for only the information/view they want #eventprofs
8:26 pm lbbinc: @spkrinteractive they key is remembering pre-show, show post-show way of approaching events #eventprofs
8:26 pm ready2spark: @MeetCollab Well said. #eventprofs
8:26 pm JessicaLevin: @ready2spark and creating webinars pre-event to support onsite programming. #eventprofs
8:27 pm psalinger: @ready2spark and then giving ppl opportunity to vote on it, thus collaborating #eventprofs
8:27 pm camerontoth: Two because they can find information and research much more efficiently #eventprofs
8:27 pm pcrerar: @ready2spark For most, if what they read matches their already held beliefs they will accept w out checking accuracy #eventprofs
8:27 pm JodyChuA: I think people have turned to the internet for their news for one of two reasons #eventprofs
8:27 pm MeetCollab: @spkrinteractive social media has to be coupled with more commonly used media in a communications strategy pre-event #eventprofs
8:27 pm spkrinteractive: How about video/audio media specifically? Can they drive collaboration pre-event? #eventprofs
8:27 pm nicolejensen: @camerontoth Yes, I can choose what news I read online. And I don't own a TV or radio. #eventprofs
8:27 pm camerontoth: I think there are more 2 people than 1 people but I'm an optimist #eventprofs
8:27 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JodyChuA and what are those two reasons? #eventprofs
8:27 pm psalinger: @JessicaLevin or blogs, or other communications that enhance a longer conversation #eventprofs
8:28 pm spkrinteractive: RT @MeetCollab: social media has to be coupled with more commonly used media in a communications strategy pre-event -> gr8 point #eventprofs
8:28 pm mmcallen: @spkrinteractive I think you need to use video/audio to build your strategy around an event. #eventprofs
8:28 pm MichaelMcCurry: you know for most part I could care less what the nightly news says... I care more about what ppl in my network say and report! #eventprofs
8:28 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive I think they can if they're part of a broader strategy to engage ppl in community or conversation #eventprofs
8:28 pm JessicaLevin: @psalinger Blogs are a great way for speakers to begin "speaking" to attendees before they ever arrive at an event. #eventprofs
8:29 pm MsStallings: Hi everyone! Sorry for the tardiness - whats the current topic? #eventprofs
8:29 pm mmcallen: Problem I see is there is so much "noise" how do you get peoples attention? #eventprofs
8:29 pm spkrinteractive: @mmcallen Can you use video/audio to spark a conversation that creates interest in your event leading up to your event? #eventprofs
8:29 pm ready2spark: @pcrerar It will be very interesting to see if behaviour will evolve or stay the same over time. #eventprofs
8:29 pm camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - I think the media you use has to match up with your content #eventprofs
8:29 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin I agree because the reinforce credibility and thought leadership #eventprofs
8:29 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry That's a good observation. Is there a time and place for serious journalism? NYTimes columnists for example. #eventprofs
8:29 pm lbbinc: @JessicaLevin agree 100%, it opens up pre-event discussions and an ability to learn more @ what audience wants #eventprofs
8:30 pm mmcallen: @MichaelMcCurry The paper and nightly news seems like old news to me when I watch or read them----- #eventprofs
8:30 pm MeetCollab: @MichaelMcCurry You make my point = consensus and acclimation #eventprofs
8:30 pm camerontoth: If you are having a convention for X-Games I think you would want to have music and xtreme video content #eventprofs
8:30 pm psalinger: @JessicaLevin and even helping with audience acquisition if done right #eventprofs
8:30 pm lbbinc: sorry to run, but need to go home now, enjoyed the short discussion #eventprofs
8:30 pm lindseyhayzlett: What are you doing to create buzz for your event, speaking engagement? Is it a mix, or are your eggs in one basket? #eventprofs
8:30 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin It all seems like fluff to me... the mainstream journalism #eventprofs
8:30 pm mmcallen: @spkrinteractive I cant see why not- it shoul dbe part of your PR or pre/post marketing #eventprofs
8:30 pm spkrinteractive: Q2: How is collaborative media different DURING the event? #eventprofs
8:31 pm lindseyhayzlett: PR and publicity efforts are worthless without follow-through #eventprofs
8:31 pm camerontoth: a convention for speakers I think you would want to have great video of speaking snippets but you might want to engage people #eventprofs
8:31 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin Absolutely! They can still get access to people / places the general public can't. Style & intelligence will also #eventprofs
8:31 pm MichaelMcCurry: @mmcallen yes Mike I agree... #eventprofs
8:31 pm camerontoth: with speaking prep exercises and tools #eventprofs
8:31 pm jessrafferty: I need to run as well.. good night all! #eventprofs
8:31 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin ...distinguish the good from the commodities. #eventprofs
8:31 pm psalinger: @mmcallen to some degree I think it has to be very targeted and relevant content to cut thru the noise #eventprofs
8:31 pm MeetCollab: @MichaelMcCurry we tend (rightly) on consensus among trusted collaborators in our respective networks #eventprofs
8:32 pm spkrinteractive: Q2 is kind of a softball since most of us are heavily involved in the idea of virtual events. #eventprofs
8:32 pm JessicaLevin: @lindseyhayzlett from my speakers hat - I enjoy virtual introductions to the audience ahead of time. #eventprofs
8:32 pm MichaelMcCurry: @jessrafferty GN Jess #eventprofs
8:32 pm mmcallen: @spkrinteractive I think it really can enhance your event... helps with networking, education and strategy #eventprofs
8:32 pm JessicaLevin: @MeetCollab Who do you trust more? #Eventprofs or Fox news? #eventprofs
8:33 pm mmcallen: love to be able to hear/watch about speakers pre event.... #eventprofs
8:33 pm spkrinteractive: RT @mmcallen: I think Collab Media really can enhance your event... helps with networking, education and strategy #eventprofs
8:33 pm ready2spark: @spkrinteractive Love expanding inviting the press to an event to inviting bloggers & influential tweeters to an event. #eventprofs
8:33 pm mmcallen: @JessicaLevin fox news obviously #eventprofs
8:33 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin easy answer.. I trust my network! #eventprofs
8:33 pm camerontoth: I think the basics of Twitter projected walls and tweetup locations are great. I stress organizer awareness and interaction #eventprofs
8:33 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin LOL! I'm a Canadian, so I'm going to have to go with #eventprofs. #eventprofs
8:33 pm JessicaLevin: @mmcallen give us examples of an A/C strategy. #eventprofs
8:34 pm camerontoth: @JessicaLevin - Absolutely do not trust Fox news! #eventprofs
8:34 pm MeetCollab: @JessicaLevin no question my trusted network #eventprofs
8:34 pm psalinger: @mmcallen also helps with dynamic feedback loop that allows content to be more agile and relevant in real time #eventprofs
8:34 pm spkrinteractive: @ready2spark gr8 point. Let journalists borrow some of the content in return for a broader conversation about ur event. #eventprofs
8:34 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin Here's the rub... by the time we hear mainstream news .. they are filling in the holes.. not divulging anyting new #eventprofs
8:34 pm camerontoth: Always trust your people! #eventprofs
8:35 pm mmcallen: Its all moving to the web-it has to be part of your strategy -both video and audio plus written-how do you consume your content? #eventprofs
8:35 pm JessicaLevin: @ready2spark Um. No Bill O'Reilly for you? #eventprofs
8:35 pm MichaelMcCurry: New networks have a political machine behind them and they are top-down organizations... not collaborative #eventprofs
8:35 pm mmcallen: RT @spkrinteractive Love expanding inviting the press to an event to inviting bloggers & influential tweeters to an event. #eventprofs
8:35 pm JessicaLevin: @camerontoth is there a commercial news source that you do trust? #eventprofs
8:36 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin I'm a Peter Mansbridge girl. Highly recommend CBC. #eventprofs
8:36 pm lindseyhayzlett: @spkrinteractive I feel you need to connect with your audience before you set foot on stage. What are ways to do this? #eventprofs
8:36 pm spkrinteractive: Q3 (5 mins): How is post event Collaborative Media different? What can we do there? #eventprofs
8:36 pm MeetCollab: @JessicaLevin we all have to construct our main media filters but we tend to rely on our trusted network for validation #eventprofs
8:36 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin My mind is going blank on that question. #eventprofs
8:36 pm JessicaLevin: @ready2spark So you have a trusted news source that you believe in? #eventprofs
8:37 pm camerontoth: @mmcallen - I don't like Video b/c it is not a multi-taskable medium. If you do video 4 your promo strategy make sure its short #eventprofs
8:37 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive you mean things like surveys, email blasts etc. #eventprofs
8:37 pm mmcallen: @camerontoth why isnt it a mulitask medium? #eventprofs
8:37 pm MichaelMcCurry: RT @MeetCollab: @JessicaLevin we all have to construct our main media filters but we rely on trusted network for validation #eventprofs
8:37 pm spkrinteractive: @lindseyhayzlett ways to connect with audience pre-event: webinar, phone conference, idea crowdsourcing...many more #eventprofs

8:42 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive we are a tough crowd to keep on topic :) #eventprofs
8:42 pm camerontoth: I am currently using the tool on a website I manage - html given from the google app and posted to sitehttp://ow.ly/kw6D #eventprofs
8:43 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive webcasting will be hot - I'm not sure what the strongest platform will be. #eventprofs
8:43 pm psalinger: @spkrinteractive they're good examples of how to do a live/virtual hybrid type event and integrate social media #eventprofs
8:43 pm spkrinteractive: @JessicaLevin Why is webcasting so gr8. How will it get used? #eventprofs
8:43 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive hmmm they all have their challenges.. integrating Twitter with Webcast not an exact science #eventprofs
8:43 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry Stop causing trouble for the man. #eventprofs
8:44 pm lindseyhayzlett: We have recently experienced ustream, twitcam, twebevent. How can these tools be used to support events? #eventprofs (via @spkrinteractive)
8:44 pm MeetCollab: @spkrinteractive again video is s o o o hot for promotion and extending the presence of the moment of an event #eventprofs
8:44 pm ready2spark: @spkrinteractive Having used them it was a gr8 way 2 have ppl experience the event who could not attend. #eventprofs
8:44 pm camerontoth: @mmcallen - Yes - Video for pre and post event will work best with Snippets - Long video available for a fee is a good model! #eventprofs
8:44 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive It's great for year-round learning as well as for those that cannot attend live events. Need a good platform. #eventprofs
8:44 pm tempoliveevents: hey guys, im late (c my tweets 4 excuse) - twitcam can work well to update folks at sporting events that r not televised live #eventprofs

8:45 pm camerontoth: @JessicaLevin You are most welcome! #eventprofs

8:46 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive ok did you see @pinnovation his session yesterday.. he connected with virtual audience in big way .. #eventprofs
8:46 pm spkrinteractive: @ZeristaSoftware What made it a positive experience? #eventprofs
8:46 pm camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - Web casting is useful 4 those who can't travel - Web casting forces events 2 b better #eventprofs
8:47 pm psalinger: @camerontoth long video for fee especially good if transcribable and searchable, like Altus #eventprofs
8:47 pm spkrinteractive: @MichaelMcCurry Heh, yes. I am just playing moderator. :) #eventprofs
8:47 pm MichaelMcCurry: @spkrinteractive none of them have masterd the art of chat and video simultaneous #eventprofs
8:47 pm psalinger: @MichaelMcCurry I have to go back and watch the @pinnovation session, but little I saw was really good #eventprofs
8:47 pm camerontoth: More thought and preparation is required for a web casted event and b/c it is recorded makes people want to perform better #eventprofs
8:48 pm MeetCollab: RT @camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - Web casting is useful 4 those who cant travel - Web casting forces events 2 b better #eventprofs
8:48 pm camerontoth: @psalinger - I will have to check Altus out - I've not heard of it before #eventprofs
8:48 pm ZeristaSoftware: @spkrinteractive sonicfoundry does an excellent job of synchronizing slides, video & audio in one viewer #eventprofs
8:48 pm spkrinteractive: @camerontoth Interesting. Why does webcasting "force to be better"? #eventprofs
8:48 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry I agree. It's a matter of technology and process to get it right. #eventprofs
8:48 pm ready2spark: Webcasting created a separate chat related to the topic we were speaking about. Interesting. #eventprofs
8:48 pm camerontoth: @psalinger - do you have a link? #eventprofs
8:49 pm camerontoth: @ZeristaSoftware - Good tip - will check that out as well! #eventprofs
8:49 pm psalinger: @camerontoth ah, if only ppl did give it more thought and prep. seen way too many bad and boring webcasts #eventprofs
8:49 pm JessicaLevin: Do we know what percentage of #eventprofs are webcasting events when relevant? #eventprofs
8:49 pm ready2spark: Disadvantage was not being able to embed the powerpoint into the interface - so u could see live + Ppt + chat. #eventprofs
8:49 pm MichaelMcCurry: @psalinger Paul it was very impressive.. he talked to virtual audience while live ones were working exercise #eventprofs
8:50 pm camerontoth: @psalinger - Let's team up and do them right... somebody has to! #eventprofs
8:50 pm ZeristaSoftware: Moderating a "blended live and virtual event" is a totally new skill that few have mastered #eventprofs
8:50 pm psalinger: @camerontoth http://www.altuslearning.com/ #eventprofs
8:50 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin gr8 question Jessica #eventprofs
8:50 pm camerontoth: @ready2spark - Is there a webcasting chat? #eventprofs
8:51 pm ready2spark: @ELISAcsep For some reason you didn't come through on Tweetchat?!? #eventprofs
8:51 pm spkrinteractive: @JessicaLevin Some may be pumping video, but very few are doing it in a collaborative manner like @pinnovation #eventprofs
8:51 pm JessicaLevin: @ready2spark It's important for it to be "just like you are there" for virtual attendees to appreciate it. #eventprofs
8:51 pm JessicaLevin: @camerontoth We need #webcastchat for sure. #eventprofs
8:51 pm spkrinteractive: RT @ZeristaSoftware: Moderating a "blended live and virtual event" is a totally new skill that few have mastered #eventprofs
8:52 pm camerontoth: @ZeristaSoftware - In my experience you must have good camera people, tech staff and a good presentation. Chain is strong as... #eventprofs
8:52 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive I guess we need to learn and start doing it asap. #eventprofs
8:52 pm MichaelMcCurry: RT @ZeristaSoftware: Moderating a "blended live and virtual event" is a totally new skill that few have mastered .. agreed!! #eventprofs
8:52 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin That's a great point. I'm doing a pres. in Trinidad in a month - would love 2 improve exp. 4 virtual viewers. #eventprofs
8:52 pm JessicaLevin: @spkrinteractive Who do we think has mastered it? I want to learn. #eventprofs
8:52 pm camerontoth: Lets schedule one for September RT @JessicaLevin: @camerontoth We need #webcastchat for sure. #eventprofs
8:52 pm spkrinteractive: @ready2spark tool called procaster.com can help with blending slides into video stream #eventprofs
8:52 pm JessicaLevin: @camerontoth I guess you have to spend some $$ to do it right. #eventprofs
8:53 pm psalinger: @JessicaLevin really? I see it as a different experience where u can do diff things for virtual aud but F2F might still be best #eventprofs
8:53 pm MichaelMcCurry: @JessicaLevin @pinnovation is the best I have seen.. he connects with entire audience #eventprofs
8:53 pm spkrinteractive: @JessicaLevin People like Guy Kawasaki and Robert Scoble are pretty good at it. #eventprofs
8:53 pm ready2spark: @camerontoth Love it! #eventprofs
8:53 pm camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - What's pinnovation doing? #eventprofs
8:53 pm pcrerar: I would encourage webcasts even if we are a bit scared, not too confident yet. They are so convenient for the on line audience. #eventprofs
8:54 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry I need to check out @pinnovation. #eventprofs
8:54 pm ready2spark: @JessicaLevin ...I've learned this is tough to do when conf. organizers still haven't 'got the technology' & its benefits. #eventprofs
8:54 pm ready2spark: @MichaelMcCurry Is there an archive of this video? #eventprofs
8:54 pm camerontoth: @JessicaLevin - Well the equip and the people can cost you but if you control your environment you can reduce cost significantly #eventprofs
8:54 pm MichaelMcCurry: @camerontoth he takes time to connect with all audiences... equally and on their level.. it is very engaging #eventprofs
8:54 pm spkrinteractive: @camerontoth He simulcasted an event from asae09 and worked the virtual audience into live preso #eventprofs
8:55 pm JessicaLevin: @ready2spark That's an excellent point. Like you I am on both sides (speaking and producing). I need to get up to speed on this. #eventprofs
8:55 pm JessicaLevin: @camerontoth I think equip and people are huge! #eventprofs
8:55 pm camerontoth: @MichaelMcCurry - Would like to invite him for the September webcast chat - @pinnovation#eventprofs
8:55 pm MichaelMcCurry: @ready2spark umm hold on let me see if I can locate it #eventprofs

8:56 pm spkrinteractive: {moderator} 5 mins left. Any topic recommendations for future chat sessions? #eventprofs
8:56 pm JessicaLevin: @MichaelMcCurry but the ASAE planner need some credit too, I suppose. They had a strong platform? #eventprofs

8:57 pm MichaelMcCurry: here is the url for his archive.. the a/v quality is so-so, the content is incrediblehttp://www.ustream.tv/recorded/2001264 #eventprofs
8:57 pm spkrinteractive: @JessicaLevin No. He did it completely independently. They had no streaming media. #eventprofs

9:00 pm MichaelMcCurry: @ready2spark I will caution you that you need a really strong internet connection and the first 11 mins are tech problems #eventprofs
9:00 pm camerontoth: @spkrinteractive - Great job moderating! I learned, I loved and I twitted! #eventprofs
9:00 pm psalinger: @MichaelMcCurry yep - most conf organizers are still pretty clueless how to take advantage of this kind of stuff #eventprofs
