With several hours worth of audio, syncing slides and audio wasn't practical -- so I'm glad you're not finding it too awkward. I'll be publishing parts three and four tomorrow - they deal with work and lifelong learning, so I know you'll find them interesting. Cheers! KerryJ Hi Simon

I appreciate accessing the index of podcasts so I can choose which one to listen to first. I find the slides arranged in a separate website easy to scroll back and forth as the audio is playing. Thanks too for not loading me with more emails than I already receive. This blog is a good way for me to record my comments in the context of the discussion. Kerry,

Podcasting? Cover it Live? There was no live stream of audio, so no, I couldn't have just pointed you at a live stream of audio. We could have used something like Ustream but we have found the Cover it Live tool much more accessible for people in regional areas in our previous uses of it for the DER symposium and the Eportfolio Symposium. It couldn't have been easier to ask questions on the day Simon -- all one had to do is type a name and a question -- much KISS'ier than email no matter what your age and much simpler for someone paraphrasing on the fly and moderating a lively chat on the side. ; ) Slidecast sounds interesting and I'll be sure to check it out, although VoiceThread would also do the job. As I've spent a great deal of time readying the podcasts, it may be something we need to budget for for future events. Please share what you do on your blog or for your events. Cheers!

Any chance that next time you could just point us to the live stream? And just give us an email address to ask questions? You know, KISS for us old folks. You might like to consider what http://wikipediaweekly.org/ do, as a way to offer some context for the seminars. Lastly, perhaps a http://www.slideshare.net/faqs/slidecast so we don't have the A and V separation Good Stuff! (boring lecture though) Nice attempt Kerry,
