During this class I will be doing at least 1 interactive session using Skype for voice and a screen sharing program called "Show My PC"
http://showmypc.com/

I am looking for feedback as to how many would be interested, how willing people are to use Skype and, topics you are interested in seeing more information about.

Because we have people from all over the world we would need to schedule the session(s) pretty tightly and some coordination of connections to Skype for the conference call need to be arranged before we actually attempt this.

My current thoughts about this are:

1) Verify interest.
2) Ask people to download, install and configure Skype or another program capable of using the skype system to do the voice part of the session.
3) Schedule 1st session at least a week ahead of time for a Saturday.  We are looking at 10:00 AM Central time USA.  -6 GMT on Saturday April 18th 2009
4) Sessions would be about 1 to 1.5 hours depending on interest and topics to cover

5) Topics would need to be addressed before hand so we can focus on what you all want to see.

I am also thinking of offering single sessions to single users for specific trouble shooting and technique walk through as needed.

I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on this.

P.S. Mike may be able to attend as well.

I would participate in the real-time session.  I think just to watch some expert color correction and ask questions during the process would be valuable.

I normally use (and recommend) Google Chat for voice and webcam sessions but I should be able to download and use Skype if necessary.

wonderful...
These sessions are very fun and as the class develops you will form more questions for the session...

I'd love to give it a go - the time zones will make it tricky for me - so I might be asleep at the key board.

Mandy we might be able to work it out...I'll look at some other times we can do this as well...

Greg

I would be interested, unfortunately 4/18 & 4/11 I will be OOT.

We could go later I usually like to do this near the middle of the class so that you have time to try things out.  Would the 25th work or possibly the 4th??

Greg

either date would work fine

Sorry this is such a late reply - would be interesed but have not used this tech before so could be chaos!, dates ok by me.

Mick,
Take as much time as you need...I will answer questions about the work done in the class way past the last week.  The class boards stay open to you for a very long time.

The technology is pretty easy...I'm thinking the 23rd is going to be the date...with Easter and some family commitments in between it seems to be the best choice that will give us time to discuss and test the programs needed for the process..
