Beyonce was Stuttering but Comcast Fixed It
I was watching a clip of Beyonce from Late Night with Jimmy Fallon yesterday, but the clip wasn't playing smoothly. The video was stuttering badly. Better than the telephone: Twitter So I went on twitter and sent a tweet to @comcastcares.  They sent someone out today. Comcast: We Have A Problem The technician said that my highs were too high an my lows were too low, or something like that. I also had a bird's nest in my cable junction box.  Image: Birds Nest in Cable Box Dirty Jobs It was a dirty messy job to open up that box and remove the nest. Squirrels! Next up, an examination of the cables showed the Squirrels were eating into them, damaging the cables and letting water get in. All bad. The cables to the house were replaced with heavy duty cables. The junction box was also replaced, moving it to ground level, with a lock that will keep the birds out. Fixed Everything seems to be moving along at a better rate now. Thanks Comcast.

Google+ Hangout Weather Video Stream
This morning I opened up a Google+ Video Hangout, turned on my webcam, and pointed it out the window to capture the approaching storm. I'm alway looking for new ways to use video when new applications pop up on the web. Google+ Hangouts is changing the way we have conversations in real time. I left the camera on and went back to bed. Having a Conversation When I came back to check on the video hangout, people were in there having a conversation. Steve Ellwood, Tom Elko, Michael Denton, Peter Marquardt, Paul Geffen, and Wayne MacPhail were having a great conversation about Google+. My hangout had provided a forum. I joined in. Technical Talk We talked about some technical features and requests. Right now, when you are talking, your video does not pop up on the big screen. It should. One thing that we noticed is that when you are looking at your own video, it's mirrored. Like looking into a mirror. The way we are used to looking at ourselves. Interesting. Recording a Google+ Video Hangout The idea came up to record the stream so others could watch it later. There are ways to do this with screen capture apps, but I said that the process of making it a recorded session would change the nature of the session itself. By knowing that we weren't being recorded, we had a very comfortable and free flowing conversation. Much like you'd have at a water coller or a bar. The moment that it starts being recorded or live streamed, the participants change the presentation and content. Sometimes unknowingly. Authentic and Real As people get more used to talking on live video like this, I'm sure we'll get to a point where authentic and real water cooler chats like this can remain the same and be recorded and shared. Some people already get what I'm saying. The thought process I use when I do my live show SteveGarfield.tv is similar, but modified to fit the 'TV Show' mold. It's me and my guests talking. I try to structure the conversation to cover specific topics and move quickly. Back in the early days of videoblogging we had group video chats that were archived and had the water cooler feel to them. They were fun for a like minded group of people to get together and chat. To make it interesting for viewers, there probably needs to be structure, topics, and moderation. Maybe not. I'll be experimenting with live broadcasting and archiving of water cooler chats. I think they're really interesting. What are your thoughts? Update: Just saw this from Om Malik, he's calling it The Alive Web, Google Hangouts gives the “Alive Web” a big boost: Hangouts is about having a conversation, albeit over video. It isn’t a chat (in the traditional Internet sense) and it isn’t a conference call. Hangout with folks you want to connect, even for a few seconds, enjoy an immersive interaction and then move on. It is just for hanging out — just like some of the early killer apps of the Internet such as BBS, IRC and AOL Chat Rooms. And for that precise reason, Hangouts is very different from the video chatting offered by Skype and Facebook.Exactly! posted by Steve at 9:01 AM | link | (1) Join the Discussion

How To Install Facebook Video Calling / Video Chat
This was fun. Facebook 'Video Calling' brings people together. I just installed Facebook video chat after finding the directions over on Engadget. STEP 1 Go to the Facebook Video Calling Getting Started Page.  Image: Facebook Video Calling - Get Started STEP 2 Click GET STARTED.  Image: To set up video calling on Facebook STEP 3 Click SAVE when prompted to save the Video Calling Plug-in. The video calling plug-in is downloaded. Step 4 You then open the downloaded file to install it. This takes a few moments. RUN the saved file.  Image: Facebook Video Calling - Install Progress Indicator Once installed, the CALL button with an image of a video camera shows up on friends pages who have installed the Video Calling App.  Once installed, there will be less of a barrier for Facebook users to make video calls. It'll be interesting to see the adoption. Update: The Facebook Blog: Call Your Friends Right From Facebook CIO: Facebook Video Calling: How to Get Started and Adjust Privacy Settings Update II: When on a call, if you have multiple cameras attached to your computer, you can switch between cameras using the camera dropdown menu at the bottom of the video chat window.

My First 10 Person Google Plus Hangout
10 people total. It was fun. The technology worked really well. Only a few people had headphones and it didn't matter. Sound was great for everyone. When someone talks, their video makes it to the big screen. I didn't make a capture of it, but there is also a chat window that opens in the sidebar. Very nice implementation of video chat. posted by Steve at 11:07 AM | link | (0) Join the Discussion
