2009 Regional Webcasts

[Jonathan Norris]

I guess its the time of year to start organizing who will be web casting and recording regionals this year. Last year you can see this thread that we used to organize who will record regionals. We should use a similar format this year to keep track of who will be recording what, but I ask anyone willing to help me keep track of this list just update it by copying the last one, adding the new names, and pasting it into your post surrounded by "["CODE"]" text... "["/CODE"]" without the quotes.

As for how to webcast a regional check out this thread about streaming a regional using one of the free online flash streaming websites. This year I highly recomend anyone wanting to webcast a regional to use ustream.tv or justin.tv. These free services have improved a lot in the last year and are able to handle the hundreds of viewers a regional webcast will receive. All you need is a video input to your computer, an internet connection, and a web browser. Last year I ran the Waterloo webcast using ustream.tv with great success, sure we ran into a couple problems but at the time it was one of the most watched webcasts ustream.tv had seen, we even got featured on their front page on Saturday. Alot of the popularity probably had to do with Karthik and Paul communicating with the webcast audience and taking 'suggestions' .

As for this year I am hoping to run the webcast at Waterloo again this year, as long as I can find someone to watch it for me at Waterloo.
