And with Eloise that Kisa's chatlog tool significantly improves the readability of otherwise bland chatlogs and that it's really about choice and what is useful in the context of any given meeting.<BR/><BR/>I've made a slight change to the original post because my wording in the middle implied that I thought my live-blogging was more useful than a chatlog - which I don't necessarily.<BR/><BR/>What's the RL equivalent of a chatlog? A recorded audio stream I guess? I wonder if some combination of audio stream and live-blogging would work best - then the live-blogger wouldn't have to worry about trying to capture everything but could focus more on the reflective stuff.<BR/><BR/>I also wonder if asking several people in the RL meeting to live-blog collaboratively would improve the overall experience of tracking the blog remotely?<BR/><BR/>Re: LSD. I hope my live-blogging doesn't come across like that - though LSD wouldn't go amiss in some of the meetings I have to sit thru.Art Fossetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06036853556502498237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812407467138247259.post-3346219291508970362008-06-14T11:46:00.000-07:002008-06-14T11:46:00.000-07:00I disagree, and put a sharp disagreement upon IYan...I disagree, and put a sharp disagreement upon IYan's blog. Chatlogs are a time-honoured tradition in SL because of the need for accountability, and people actually love reading them, because they are full accounts and it's like being there, and they get all the nuances. They have adapted. Those who don't like it don't have to read, or can skim.<BR/><BR/>I'd rather have a journalist listen carefully to a speech and take some notes, then write a piece afterwards with coherence, than live blog. I find many live bloggings of events sound like people on LSD trips.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17462957723334149373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812407467138247259.post-89499979588370985282008-06-14T09:09:00.000-07:002008-06-14T09:09:00.000-07:00It got long, so I posted on my own blog.<A HREF="http://eloisepasteur.net/blog/index.php?/archives/149-Transcript-or-Minutes.html" REL="nofollow" TITLE="Eloise's Thoughts and Fancies">It got long, so I posted on my own blog.</A>Eloisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00645110245532917138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-812407467138247259.post-25653372888813483412008-06-14T07:28:00.000-07:002008-06-14T07:28:00.000-07:00For people such as myself (several hundred quid ju...For people such as myself (several hundred quid just to fly to the mainland), plus anyone eco-, time- or cost- conscious, live-blogging is a hell of a lot better than no-blogging! It seems to generally work very well, though as a reader and commenter, am not sure if/when I should add a comment, in case it starts a discussion that flies off at a tangent and the core "event blog" gets smothered by it.<BR/><BR/>Disagree profoundly with IWs position. The problem is arguably with Googles indexing and/or end-users search skills. Starting to omit making content available online because of those two problems wrong; the problems themselves need to be addressed.<BR/><BR/>A well-tagged conference, with pictures, movies, a static blog, transcript and live blog and/or in-world feed, provides many possibilities for during- and after- event analysis. It's a shame that more conferences don't hire people just to live-blog and run alternative online streams e.g. in SL, during the event.Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02193076122436074948noreply@blogger.com
