Mmmm Kate – I think this has been happening if I don’t log out. Sorry.

Thanks Judy – SnagIT is my secret (not that secret) and it just makes it easier for everyone. Most of my participants prefer step by step handouts which is why I use these. I found Vixy easy but prefer the increased video options offered by vConvert.

Great post Sue. Gotta say I have found Vixy.net to be excellent, and many of my teachers use it too without any problems. I wonder if suz problem is a network timeout issue? I also love your little instructional images – what are you using to generate those?

Thanks Kate will road test Miro on my computer. Unfortunately we would not be allowed to use it at work.

Suz – thanks for sharing your tips on video with me. I have made changes to the post based on your comment and it also made me realise I needed to point out they need to find the original video site for videos found on Google Video. Yes I am getting totally sick of spam blogs but it is such a problem I not sure what I shall do — totally overwhelming on my podcast site.

Darn, 2 out of 3 posts spam? How frustrating.

Just wanted to point out http://www.vconvert.at/ its a much more reliable flv converter than vixy (which I found would frequently corrupt a file on longer videos).

Lots of great info in this post – Ill be following all the links when I have more time. Thanks!

[...] Check it out! While looking through the blogosphere we stumbled on an interesting post today.Here’s a quick excerpt Part of my work involves teaching others how to podcast and when it comes to video my advice always is STOP! and LOOK! first before you consider ever creating your own videos. You can spend a lot of time creating videos — I know I spend way too much time creating videos for my podcast site. There is sooooo much content already on the Internet that it is often more efficient to use videos created by others. I recommend searching 3 main video sharing sites: 1. Google Video Google Video search [...]

For finding videos, I strongly recommend Miro (http://www.getmiro.com/) as it allows you to easily search Google, You Tube and a range of other video sharing websites and download them to your computer.
