A Shout-Out to Jacob Caggiano

Jacob Caggiano has produced a short video which highlights OpenMeetings.org/MetaVid and a few other projects designed to deliver an media–rich experience to everyone on the web.  Take a look:

Unfortunately, the lighting is a bit dark for my segment.  While setting up the recording space, we thought the overhead lights would generate bright spots on subjects; they were accidentally dimmed a bit too much.  Also, I need to learn to use less filler words during speaking engagements and to project my voice a bit more.

Overall, the video does a fantastic job visualizing a number of upcoming changes in the overall user experience with open video.  Comments welcome.

OpenMeetings.org @ The Makery Sept. 9-17th

I’m pleased to announce that Elizabeth Stark and Matt Langer have agreed to have me as a guest at The Makery from Sept. 9-17th.  The Makery is a brand-new co-working space located in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, designed for “writers, entrepreneurs, early-stage startups and freelancers.”  Original post.

I’ll be commuting from mid-Manhattan during this time, and also attending the “Business and Pleasure” Mixer hosted by Hacks/Hackers on Sept. 8th.  If you’re in the NYC area and take an interest in either OpenMeetings.org or the larger picture of open video, we should talk!
