Live GWC Podcast: Testers Needed

Odd. I can’t connect to the talkshoe site right now.

7pm Central tonight. I’ve got my Talkshoe account and the phone number to call in to!

I can’t find it on the site <_< Is it not up or am I not being creative enough with my search terms

http://www.talkshoe.com works but I don’t think Chuck’s had time to get it setup yet!

CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE!

Use Firefox. TalkShoe and Safari don’t get along.

Scheduled it. It’s called “GWC Test Call.” (I know, very original.)

Same thing happening here, though. UStream.TV was inaccessible too.

What is the numeric talkcast ID? I just need that for someone to call in.

Not sure if I will be able to make it Chuck…that is smack dab in the middle of Lil’ Solai’s bedtime. If I can I’ll leap on.

Okay, I shifted over to a PC here and could get into TalkShoe in Firefox. Searching for GWC Test Call turns up nothing. Is the call public or private in TalkShoe?

Here you go:

And BTW, I’m not having any trouble reaching TalkShoe.com on the Mac with Firefox. Just Safari seems to be an issue.

Update: Those of you out of the USA should be able to connect with the ShoePhone application. Pretty slick!

OK, managed to sign on with a Mac and Safari (NOT the best UI design: you have to click on the TalkShoe Pro link about three times to cycle through the download/signup/signin sequence. But I digress.)

Looks like it’ll work fine. Although, it’d be nice to have a producer onboard to help callers with mic levels, echo, etc.

I managed to catch the very very end of the test (didn’t get to jump in at the start) and it sounded OK to me.
It also seems like I missed a great online meet-up.:frowning:

Yeah…me too…I’ll now always be known as “Guest 13” :smiley:

It was a BLAST!!! Lot more fun then I thought the test call would be…

It sucks that I will miss most of Friday’s … but please please please guys post it as a podcast :wink:

Oh man. Next time I really have be sure to wear my glasses when I’m on the GWC Forum.
I read the subject line on this thread and it THOT it said " Live GWC Podcast: Toasters Needed". Sorry about that Chuck. If you recieve a FedEx tommorrow containing 12 models of toasters…well… you can go ahead and Return to Sender.

The only problem I had was making sure not to talk while others were. Chuck mentioned it will be like a phone in thing. How is that gonna work exactly? Will we all be on mute? Who will choose callers? Will you go by the request to talk button? Just curious.

P.S. Thotfull that was awesome.

For those of us who missed it, it’s available at the link chuck posted

That was my impression. They would only unmute the person that has a question or comment, while the rest of us type away in the comments section.

Trying not to talk over each other was probably the hardest part. And telling people apart, granted it was easy with me and Audra, but I was having trouble with everyone else but the GWC crew and Yorick.

mmmm Yorick…

Oh wait … Strike that…

mmmm Raemani …
