Different operating systems require different tools and methods.

Stream and record a short conversation.  Start with at least one other person in the conversation and bring in a third at some poitn. Make sure you have at least one live listener who can offer feedback on audio quality. Post the edited recording (create/audio) along with any reflections on your first streaming experience.
