Flamocon_190hI’ve already established a pattern of letting the world know what a cow-suit wearing dork I am, but I think there are times I have a point of my dorkdom worth sharing to the non-dork blog reading public.

What if I told you that in a typical day I have the ability to read more news, blogs, and other internet stuff than you do in half the time you can? My guess would be that you’d say… "Hey, Adam… I want to do that too!" (You have to say that with your best Matt Foley impersonation)

Well… here is a video I’ve seen posted all over fellow dork blogs and I thought it was worth sharing.

Watch this and increase your cool factor by ten times.

Hey…thanks for calling me a dork, too, I think. I’m pretty sure you were using it in a good sense. Ha.

I’m sorry… you are right, Dr. Dork. :)
There are a few videos out there trying to explain RSS and Web 2.0… I think this one truly captures the simplicity of the changes the web has gone through as everything had “widgetized.”

Thanks for having a great sense of humor!

It took me about 20 minutes to figure out that the firewire feed from the video camera wasn’t feeding audio as well. As soon as I plugged in a cheap mic to the mic input on the computer it worked great. I guess that’s why it was an experiment!

It’s definitely a tool we’ll be trying again. There is some potential there.

Thanks for the feedback!

Yeah, I’ve been frustrated with no audio feed from a firewire port, too. It makes no sense because if you hook a camera to the comp using firewire, you can record vid and sound normally (in Windows Movie Maker at least). I don’t know why you can’t do that in ustream.

Maybe “version 2.0″ will handle that issue. Because finding a mic in an auditorium or trying to balance a sound board input is just a beast.

That said, we’ll use it again.
