[JohnHibbs] What's missing? A single web page with a list of URL's for this particular hour, with an Arabic number next to that list...so t
[Daf] :-)

[JohnHibbs] the panelists can say - click on number twelve or number twenty four
[JohnHibbs] and viewers can choose to link or not link
Damian has left the chat.
[Harold_Jarche] John - there's a character limit on this chat
Damian has joined the chat.
[JohnHibbs] Even a blog site where people could add their links, but with the requirement that they add the Arabic number
[JohnHibbs] Jeff, I don't completely agree with that.
[Harold_Jarche] ... and a great price guys ;)
[Damian] Which is the Windows Media Player icon?
[JohnHibbs] that you have to have different ways to listen -- yes, that is right. if you have this, or that, or x, then click here
[JohnHibbs] Nice presentation

[digibridge] it's minor it's not a problem
nelliemuller has joined the chat.
[sroseman] 10 steps at to having a successful audio chat..like tappedin
[digibridge] that was my presentation in alado this morning
[nelliemuller] echo
[digibridge] even video tapes have and VCR
[digibridge] have three international standards
[digibridge] and most video recorders are not cross platforms
[Harold_Jarche] still don't really understand technology
[digibridge] digital literacy is still very low internationally
[JohnHibbs] back soon, lovely conversation
[JeffLebow] digibridge, would you like to join in?
[digibridge] it can be further compounded by adding another layer of ESL and EFL layered on top of a lack of digital literacy
[digibridge] Jeff this is Andy Pincon
[disedlibrarian] don't forget to tell people how to tell what OS and browser they are using
[sroseman] maybe you should have tips and tricks sessions or virtual tours
[JeffLebow] Ah, thought I recognized that name
[digibridge] tips and tricks is a good start
[JeffLebow] Would love to hear you comments Andy
[digibridge] a cross platform wiki would be a great idea
[digibridge] that would be one place for all FAQ's , tutorings and help desk tips
Damian has left the chat.
[sroseman] Here is how to start a wiki
[sroseman] http://www.sroseman.suprglu.com/
[JeffLebow] http://jarche.org/
[sroseman] sorry http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wiki_science_HowToStartAWiki
[Harold_Jarche] nope - jarche.com
[JeffLebow] oops, sorry
[Harold_Jarche] all info is free to use 7 copy (creative commons)
[disedlibrarian] as a librarian, I recommend encyclopedia of all sorts as background, but always check the info
[Harold_Jarche] http://halfanhour.blogspot.com/2005/07/principles-for-evaluating-websites.html
[disedlibrarian] I like that one!
leeb has left the chat.

[dave-on-air] audiostory
[dave-on-air] please go here and tell us how you get your audio to work here on edtechtalk
[Harold_Jarche] might want to try this - http://marratechfree.com/
[Dennis] Marratechfree seems to have a lot of possibility.
[sroseman] why not have an hour session here
[Dennis] The requirement that you have a static IP address would eliminate many teacher users.
[Dennis] (Many of us, even if we have broadband, don't have a static IP address.)
nelliemuller has left the chat.
nelliemuller has joined the chat.
[nelliemuller] Can you get the links in again, please?

[Dennis] audiostory
[Dennis] http://marratechfree.com
[nelliemuller] yes, and the other one as well, please
[nelliemuller] thank you
[nelliemuller] I used the wiki with Moodle but I also prefer forums
[JeffLebow] We've got space in the conference if anyone would like to join in
leeb has left the chat.
[nelliemuller] Jeff, are you familiar with the hotconference rooms?
[JeffLebow] no, would love to hear more
[JeffLebow] Saw you mention them in chat, but have not had first hand experience
[JeffLebow] Ready to join in?
[nelliemuller] I use them for online teaching
[nelliemuller] of ESL
[Dennis] I saw a couple of places in a Google search, Nellie. Is this what you're referring to?
[Dennis] http://www.hotconference.net/
[Dennis] Is this the same?
[Dennis] http://www.hotconference.ca/
[nelliemuller] http://www.makeaneasywebsite.com/main/voip_conference_rooms
[nelliemuller] The only way to get them is through MLM business deals
[nelliemuller] yes
[JeffLebow] what's MLM
[nelliemuller] you get it for $1 trial period for one month
[nelliemuller] online business and networking
[nelliemuller] Multi Level Marketing
[JeffLebow] thx
[sroseman] Find a hook..to bring them in
[nelliemuller] You can get 1,000's of people in
leeb has joined the chat.
[Harold_Jarche] try this http://www.wikiwyg.net/
leeb has left the chat.
[sroseman] is there a sandbox still in wiki where you can play and explore
leeb has joined the chat.
[Dennis] Hi, Lee.
[Dennis] It was nice to hear your voice!
[Harold_Jarche] with wikis - just do it
[Dennis] Good points about allowing time for things to "seep in."
[Dennis] I think what often happens with conferences is that people get hyped up with new ideas, concepts, contacts, etc. etc. etc., but
[Dennis] but then everything fades quickly when they have to re-enter "the real world."
[Harold_Jarche] local culture is hard to change
[sroseman] gotta go to consolidate
