13:02:24 Dennis-Phoenix : Can you read the chat here?
13:02:33 Dennis-Phoenix : I can see it!
13:03:08 Dennis-Phoenix : But the chat text is hard to see.
13:03:18 Dennis-Phoenix : Great video picture, José!
13:03:49 Dennis-Phoenix : Ok. Now I can hear and see the chat just fine!
13:04:04 Dennis-Phoenix : But I'm going to put myself on mute.
13:04:13 Dennis-Phoenix : Now muted.
13:04:20 Dennis-Phoenix : Hi, Pam and MM.
13:04:39 Dennis-Phoenix : And Derrall, of course!
13:04:42 JoseR : Hi Everyone
13:05:26 Dennis-Phoenix : I've been in several sessions in WiZiQ recently. Has anyone tried it?
13:05:48 Dennis-Phoenix : Hi, Susan.
13:05:56 derrallg : I keep missing the training sessions
13:06:00 Pam : Dennis, I have not yet.
13:06:03 jeff : love Wiz IQ
13:06:04 susanvg : Hi Dennis
13:06:14 Dennis-Phoenix : Very interesting, right Jeff?
13:06:49 Dennis-Phoenix : Bee Dieu from São Paulo at the Merlot conference in New Orleans.
13:06:54 Eurominuteman : i hear and see a mix-up of different streams
13:07:11 JoseR : I haven't tried Wiz IQ yet.
13:07:23 Dennis-Phoenix : Try it! You'll like it!
13:07:58 Dennis-Phoenix : "Take whatever you've learned and experiment . . .": Right!
13:08:32 susanvg : I'd like that
13:08:59 Eurominuteman : i think i fixed it
13:08:59 derrallg : I tried camtwist yesterday, but it didn't have the tabs of webcam max
13:09:23 Dennis-Phoenix : José: I was in one WiZiQ session conducted in Portuguese . . . but I was text chatting in Spanish.
13:09:32 Eurominuteman : i must have booted two streams
13:09:46 JoseR : Cool Dennis
13:09:52 Dennis-Phoenix : Somebody was saying something about Macs, but I missed it.
13:10:04 susanvg : I'll try it
13:10:07 Dennis-Phoenix : CamTwist?
13:10:11 susanvg : I have downloaded it
13:10:17 susanvg : CamTwist
13:10:22 Eurominuteman : choppy now
13:10:22 jeff : yes dennis
13:10:36 derrallg : oh, i get what tabs you're talking about now
13:10:43 Dennis-Phoenix : CamTwist:
13:11:16 Dennis-Phoenix : http://allocinit.com/index.php?title=CamTwist
13:11:25 Dennis-Phoenix : I think I got that right.
13:11:31 JoseR : http://webcastacademy.net/webcams
13:11:36 derrallg : They just updated on Nov. 11 current version is 1.5 for CamTwist
13:11:47 Dennis-Phoenix : Thanks, Derrall.
13:12:08 Dennis-Phoenix : WB, MM!
13:12:50 Pam : bummer
13:13:22 Dennis-Phoenix : The Portuguese WiZiQ conference started out great, but the connection got very sluggish after a while.
13:13:23 Eurominuteman : i hope to get 800 kbps upload in dec
13:13:35 Eurominuteman : dsl 16000
13:13:50 Dennis-Phoenix : My fingers are crossed for you, MM.
13:14:41 Eurominuteman : ustream.tv needs 380 kbps upload
13:14:55 Dennis-Phoenix : I think the more people that join a conference, the more dicey the output becomes, in many cases.
13:15:02 Eurominuteman : what are you guys using??
13:15:15 Dennis-Phoenix : Yes, I know about that.
13:15:34 Dennis-Phoenix : It's a problem of display on PCs vs display on Macs as much of anything.
13:15:41 Pam : Jeff, please put that code in the chat.
13:15:46 Dennis-Phoenix : I know html.
13:15:52 Pam : oh never mind, will look at faq
13:16:18 Dennis-Phoenix : The problem for me is that the "wysiwyg" isn't truly wysiwyg.
13:16:27 Dennis-Phoenix : You can't cut and paste here, Jeff.
13:16:33 JoseR : yes
13:16:35 Dennis-Phoenix : Sometimes.
13:16:45 Dennis-Phoenix : Yes.
13:16:54 Dennis-Phoenix : (re content style sheets)
13:17:46 Dennis-Phoenix : Please put a note somewhere about the break code. I had it, but I don't have it now.
13:17:53 Pam : What kind of naughty behavior are you talking about?
13:17:57 Dennis-Phoenix : And I need to play with how to make it work.
13:18:16 jeff EdTechTalk: hmmm
13:18:27 jeff EdTechTalk: hmm <!--break-
13:18:34 jeff EdTechTalk: can't enter that code into chat
13:18:49 susanvg : and some of us take much longer
13:18:55 jeff EdTechTalk: http://www.webcastacademy.net/node/1030
13:18:58 susanvg : Class of 2017
13:19:17 Dennis-Phoenix : The screen resolution that I use is also a big factor in how my blog posts, for example, show up.
13:19:20 jeff EdTechTalk: http://www.webcastacademy.net/node/1030
13:19:28 Dennis-Phoenix : (of course)
13:19:49 Dennis-Phoenix : Susan: Prolly 2027 for me . . . assuming I live that long!
13:20:36 Dennis-Phoenix : Life is in a hurry, but I'm not.
13:20:40 derrallg : That's good to know because I want to try Lee Baber's setting out
13:21:02 susanvg : still want to graduate in 2017
13:21:02 Dennis-Phoenix : She's done some very good things, hasn't she, Derrall?
13:21:12 derrallg : Yes
13:21:24 jeff EdTechTalk: couldn't enter that code in, but info about 'breaking post' is at above URL
13:21:35 susanvg : Lee's stuff is great - easy to follow
13:21:50 Dennis-Phoenix : Definitely, Susan.
13:22:05 derrallg : One of the people that makes me feel so supported
13:22:14 susanvg : We only broadcast once a month
13:22:17 Dennis-Phoenix : I feel the same way, Derrall.
13:22:53 JoseR : Dennis when you preview a post it gives you a break code
13:22:59 Dennis-Phoenix : Thanks for the heads up, Jeff.
13:23:12 Dennis-Phoenix : OK, José. I'll be sure to look for that.
13:23:58 Dennis-Phoenix : As things stand now, I toggle back and forth from html to standard display to try to figure out how things are working.
13:24:12 derrallg : @susan don't you forget settings, etc. after a month?
13:24:40 Dennis-Phoenix : I think that's a wonderful idea, José.
13:24:43 susanvg : My settings stay - but I did have to do some trouble shooting this month. Keeps me sharp
13:24:54 Dennis-Phoenix : A number of the Webheads have already done that.
13:25:01 Dennis-Phoenix : Hi, Sarah.
13:25:19 Sarah S : Hi! Quick question - when does the next class start? I want to participate.
13:26:09 Dennis-Phoenix : Today at Tapped In, Jeff, there was a person who was interested in setting up something for Special Education.
13:27:29 Sarah S : Right - 2.4
13:27:44 Dennis-Phoenix : José: The Webheads have a Spanish-language group now.
13:28:25 JoseR : Cool Spanish at Webheads
13:28:33 Dennis-Phoenix : Definitely cool!
13:28:40 jeff EdTechTalk: skype 'worldbriodges' to join in
13:29:31 Dennis-Phoenix : I think Portuguese will be next.
13:29:41 Dennis-Phoenix : Thanks, Jeff.
13:29:48 Dennis-Phoenix : Great to hear you, Pam!
13:30:05 Dennis-Phoenix : Can't hear you, Derrall!
13:30:12 Dennis-Phoenix : Now I can!
13:30:26 Eurominuteman : jane is cooled down from her rush hehe
13:30:33 Dennis-Phoenix : You sound very clear, Derrall.
13:30:52 Dennis-Phoenix : Jane from China, MM?
13:30:58 Eurominuteman : yes
13:31:06 Dennis-Phoenix : I'm glad she's calmer now.
13:31:27 Dennis-Phoenix : She wants so much to be an active participant here, but has faced all kinds of technical challenges.
13:31:35 Dennis-Phoenix : Not to mention the time issue.
13:31:40 Eurominuteman : my gears are slower too
13:31:47 Dennis-Phoenix : I'm not, Jeff.
13:32:08 Dennis-Phoenix : I have both of my webcams on this computer, but I haven't connected them.
13:32:16 Eurominuteman : her chinese pc shop ripped her off
13:32:30 Dennis-Phoenix : MM: Yes, that's exactly what I understood!
13:32:44 Dennis-Phoenix : I was in a session with her last week.
13:33:11 Dennis-Phoenix : It was the abortive Skype session that I mentioned in my W.A. blog.
13:33:12 susanvg EdTechTalk: trying to stream with camtwist - no luch
13:33:19 susanvg EdTechTalk: that's luck
13:33:30 Dennis-Phoenix : Fortunately for Jane, she didn't hear the audio. She communicated with the text chat.
13:33:40 jeff EdTechTalk: will check your ustream now
13:33:52 Dennis-Phoenix : I'd love to try to join you, Pam and Derrall.
13:34:08 Pam : Ok Dennis
13:34:15 Eurominuteman : she is waiting for delivery of a new machine
13:34:17 Dennis-Phoenix : But I don't know nuthin' (pretty much) about SL.
13:34:31 Pam : that's ok
13:35:52 Dennis-Phoenix : I already know that Derrall--and you've already proved that!
13:35:56 Dennis-Phoenix : Many thanks!
13:36:02 Dennis-Phoenix : Same for you, Pam!
13:36:10 susanvg EdTechTalk: I can stream myself - no problem - it's camtwist - I must have settings issues - I'll work on it.
13:36:40 Dennis-Phoenix : MM: I'm glad to know about Jane's new machine. I didn't know that.
13:37:15 Dennis-Phoenix : I can see the SL images, Jeff.
13:37:27 Dennis-Phoenix : I hear you from two different sources, Jeff.
13:37:28 susanvg : It depends when the session it - might be willing to help
13:37:55 Dennis-Phoenix : I can manage that, but it gets (momentarily) a little confusing sometimes.
13:38:14 Dennis-Phoenix : (manage hearing JL from two sources at the same time, that is)
13:38:31 susanvg : time is a factor
13:38:33 Eurominuteman : are you arizona dennis?
13:38:46 Dennis-Phoenix : Time is ALWAYS a factor--and time is the ENEMY!
13:38:56 susanvg : absolutely
13:38:56 Dennis-Phoenix : Yes, MM--Phoenix.
13:39:20 Dennis-Phoenix : There's another Dennis (Dennis Newson) in Germany--Osnabrück.
13:39:28 susanvg : We are perrenial newbies
13:39:39 Eurominuteman : i am southern germany, near switzerland
13:39:57 Dennis-Phoenix : Hear, hear, Susan--and don' be nuffin' wrong wif bein' a perpetual newby, right?
13:39:59 susanvg : Community is what it is about

13:40:54 Dennis-Phoenix : MM: Are you in touch with Illya Clark-Arnet?

13:42:22 Dennis-Phoenix : "How do we use this meaningfully?": Yes, definitely.
13:42:37 Dennis-Phoenix : Hi, Chrissy.
13:42:40 Eurominuteman : can you sort to countries
13:42:59 Dennis-Phoenix : I don't know, MM. Ask Jeff.
13:44:54 JoseR : http://www.webcastacademy.net/node/1176
13:46:28 Eurominuteman : google mapping the members database would be a nice step
13:46:48 Pam : That's a good idea, MM
13:47:37 Dennis-Arizona : MM: Illya Arnet-Clark is on the second page of the Members list. She's [b]Illya[/b].
13:47:51 Eurominuteman : www.proz.com does this nicely

13:50:13 Dennis-Arizona : Whaddaya think, LisaP?
13:50:50 Dennis-Arizona : "It's only the beginning."
13:52:00 Dennis-Arizona : I like that at least as much as "What is life but a series of compromises to less than satisfactory situations?"
13:53:14 Dennis-Arizona : As they'd say in Texican, Jeff, 'Sounds like it might should oughta be working, but . . . ."
13:53:24 jeff EdTechTalk: http://ustream.tv/channel/worldbridges-video
13:54:42 Dennis-Arizona : "Hablando del rey de Roma y se asoma."
