OK, it's only shocking if that's what you call County government. We have just gone digital and the first video available is the July 26, 2007 County Board meeting.
As I've mentioned before, our space on our web server is now unlimited so we're going to be able to put up audio and video files without incurring extra charges. With our new digital camera, we also have the ability to record other meetings that can't be put on cablevision and make those available. We'll be moving analog stuff over to digital in the coming months and years and you'll see lots more available.
We're also looking for some software ideas to put bookmarks in the audio and video files to help people easily navigate to the points in a meeting they want. Send us any ideas you might have.
On a related note, we continue to have some difficulties getting things properly up on cablevision. We'll hope to get this rectified so that every meeting will be broadcast in the future without the technical glitches we've experienced in the recent past.
Sounds like you need some help with video. I have spoken about this as a consultant/teacher for Apple and have been involved with vlogging for at least 2 yrs.. if you have any questions let me know..
Wow that's really pretty good, it's kind of like looking in a fish bowl full of county board members.
I think we should flush a few of them. Let's start with the those shown on the video refusing to recite the pledge of allegience.

Yes, because someone choosing to not recite an optional pledge clearly makes them not worthy to hold office...

You have finally stumbled onto the truth, Arvid. Well done.
It's great to see this online. The quality is far superior to what I've seen on cable. However, the player stutters every few seconds for me. I'm on a regular slowish DSL line (about 800kbs avg) so if you're intending folks like me to have a smooth playback experience, I'm one data point that suggests your data rate is a bit high.
Regardless, having instant playback is great.
Another idea-- what about adding it to YouTube?
I agree It is free speech not to say the pledge and one also to complain about it when you don't say the pledge.
