Demoing - CSPS armchairs CAN be on iPods and online

And they should use Google Video or YouTube as the medium to deliver them to the user.
Each video has been set to only be visible in Canada. Other countries cannot. Also these are not searchable within Google - you need to have the link to find out where they are.


Using YouTube or Google Video means:
  • less load on IM/IT or Corporate services, who don't have to host the video and maintain the servers
  • empowered users/staff who can put them online (following guidelines), meaning content can be live faster and edited more efficiently (even taken down more efficiently)
  • forward-compatible - Google Video and YouTube change their system and update the video player. Now public servants can watch the webcast on iPods and Playstation Portables. Tomorrow on other devices.
TED Talks and Google lectures are put up on-line for all to see, and everyone benefits and attaches the TED name or Google name to the lectures, getting people in touch with more content and disseminate more.
