I don't want to use a public service like Youtube as it is paid for service - so it needs to be private - is there a plugin? (10:09) RhondaL/Remlane1: LOL, Leslie! (10:10) TheCreativePenn: and I am Joanna at The Creative Penn! (10:10) Gideon: Ok, I'll see if we can answer it next Joanna - mind if we use your name in the call? (10:10) TheCreativePenn: no thats fine - thanks! (10:11) Gideon: kewl (10:12) TheCreativePenn: I might have sorted it actually - I'll raise my hand again and see what happens - if it fails again, please ask for me! (10:12) Gideon: ok - will do (10:12) Omar The Paradiddler: What's that site again? (10:12) Sami: http://lifelaughsandlemmings.com/ (10:14) RhondaL/Remlane1: Cool theme! (10:15) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I agree. Nice bright design (10:15) Gideon: Yeah I like the theme too (10:15) Gideon: nicely done and nice and bright and happy and friendly :) :) :) (10:15) Omar The Paradiddler: I wonder what theme it is. (10:15) mitch: leslie, how did the outsorcing go? (10:16) mitch: I am overwhelemed (10:16) ** dr. mike joined the room (10:16) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I only did it for one month and it went well. The person couldn't work anymore. (10:16) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: But i will be doing it more (10:16) RhondaL/Remlane1: Mitch - I can see how you might be overwhelmed. (10:16) Chris: I like the site. Good theme and idea. (10:17) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I'm outsourcing much more though. (10:17) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: All the design (10:17) Sami: Hi everyone. Thanks for the feedback on my theme. (10:17) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Now, the marketing (10:17) Leigh: What are you having the problem with most Mitch? (10:17) mitch: i have 11 writers and i hate being the boss (10:17) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: lol. Being the boss is great :D (10:17) mitch: i just want to talk about college football (10:17) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I see (10:18) ** Marlowe joined the room (10:18) RhondaL/Remlane1: Ohhhh. I thought that might be the case. (10:18) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Well then keep writing about football (10:18) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Outsource being the "boss" (10:18) Sami: This is where I found the theme but I've since had it tweaked a bit. http://www.wpthemereview.com/speakr-11/ (10:18) RhondaL/Remlane1: Are you doing college baseball, too??? (10:18) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: That's kind of the route that I'm going (10:19) Leigh: The thing I am doing with my new site mitch is compiling an ongoing list of topics, handing them to people I feel can run them the most and have on backup content in case they cant come through. Thus far it has been working well. People love to talk about things they love, it is usually writer block that is the killer. (10:19) mitch: not college, major league baseball, college basketball was huge, added nfl football and golf, adding tennins , hockey, nba, boxing, mma, olympics (10:19) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Oh my goodness. I can see why you are overwhelmed (10:20) Leigh: gteez mitch been busy much (10:20) RhondaL/Remlane1: Gee, willikers, Mitch. No wonder. (10:20) mitch: leigh, i did that but of course they aren't as passionate about the site as I am , they don't understand that most people don't start with traffic and a fan base (10:20) RhondaL/Remlane1: I'm so blown away that I can't punctuate. (10:20) mitch: my nascar guy is really ambitious but doesn't "get it" (10:20) Leigh: understood. Dealing with the "get it" factor is crucial. (10:21) ** masterbassie joined the room (10:21) mitch: tell me about it (10:21) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Yeah, it's hard to find people with the same passion you have (10:21) mitch: gave them all the blue print but we did 700,000 in february and march (10:21) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I already fired two people (10:21) mitch: so it kind of lost it's impact (10:21) mitch: i fired 1 guy (10:22) Leigh: Crazy isn't it how you have gone to little to no visitors to being a guy who can fire someone from their blog? Not fun, but you have to love the transition there (10:22) Gideon: flash video player plugin for wordpress: http://www.mac-dev.net/blog/index.php (10:22) RhondaL/Remlane1: And in less than a year, too. (10:22) TheCreativePenn: thanks for that guys! (10:22) mitch: i would rather just have other people who do the firing...lol (10:23) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Yeah, I hate that part (10:23) RhondaL/Remlane1: You need a hatchet man. Then, you can be the cool benevolent boss who digs CFB. (10:23) Gideon: website Yaro mentioned http://www.cachefly.com/ (10:23) mitch: but it's really hard to find good people. (10:24) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: That's the truth (10:24) mitch: finding people is easy, good people is difficult (10:24) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: I found one person who was really good, but she couldn't continue working because of time. That was a HUGE loss (10:24) Leigh: quality control will make you mad. (10:24) TheCreativePenn: Blurb has a good blog sucking software as well http://www.blurb.com/create/book/blogbook (10:24) mitch: especially since we get published everywhere now (10:24) TheCreativePenn: not sure if it is wordpress (10:24) mitch: i was in sports illustrated (10:25) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Wow Mitch, that's awesome (10:25) RhondaL/Remlane1: No kidding! That's so cool! (10:25) Leigh: That's awesome mitch, you are really doing your thing. (10:25) mitch: have a smalll link to an article on CBS sports today (10:25) Leigh: All I got last month was a case of Pom wonderful ;) (10:25) TheCreativePenn: Gideon - did you get this re what Yaro is on now? Blurb has a good blog sucking software as well http://www.blurb.c om/create/book/blogbook (10:26) RhondaL/Remlane1: Thanks for the link, CreativePen. I keep a bookmark folder of Blog Tools (10:29) mitch: my new site is a mess...will be for a few months more unfortunately, still don't have cfb linked in so i'm splitting my traffic (10:29) TheCreativePenn: new technology coming up for video in books http://vook.tv/ (10:29) TheCreativePenn: its only in beta (10:30) mitch: what a construction zone looks like... (10:30) mitch: http://sportschatplace.com/ (10:32) mitch: anyone else get dumped by AT&T for advertising? (10:32) RhondaL/Remlane1: Wow. Very ambitious, Mitch. No wonder. (10:33) mitch: a long way to go, my electronic scorboard and schedule with XML has a 5 second load time so i don't have it up anymore (10:33) RhondaL/Remlane1: Just FWIW, if you're going to do more videos in front of the window, you need a fill-in light on your face. I love the city background, though. Worth it. :) (10:33) mitch: i know, was just a try, that's my living room (10:33) ** dr. mike left the room (10:34) RhondaL/Remlane1: Nice digs. I like the city backdrop. Like NFL on CBS when they shoot on the streets. (10:34) Gideon: Hey Dr Mike - are you still there? (10:35) mitch: should have seen my wrigley videos (10:35) Gideon: Have you been able to get your audios working yet? (10:35) ** Hector joined the room (10:35) RhondaL/Remlane1: I had trouble with audio on one. Where you're standing by/in front of a statue? Is that Wrigley? (10:36) mitch: yes (10:36) mitch: i did 3 there (10:36) mitch: this summer i am going to do them all over the place (10:37) RhondaL/Remlane1: Cool! I'll have to watch them. I had computer trouble (a virus) but my husband got it extracted, so I'm still doing systems checks. (10:39) RhondaL/Remlane1: Leigh - should make a connection with one of the local health reporters. (10:40) ** doug left the room (10:42) Sami: Hey Liz, thanks very much for your awesome comment on my site. Really appreciate it! (10:42) Omar The Paradiddler: Oh yeah! theparadiddler.com :) (10:43) Gideon: remember to add http:// in front of your domain name - that way it's clickable in here (10:43) Omar The Paradiddler: Ahem, http://theparadiddler.com (10:46) ** RhondaL/Remlane1> left the room (10:47) Leslie/TheFreebieGuy: Ok guys, I'm heading out for tonight.

(11:00) Liz: yes that's me (11:00) Liz: I'm on Skype (11:00) Liz: I'll try calling on the phone then... (11:00) Liz: thanks! (11:01) Gideon: ok cool (11:01) Marlowe: In skype - go onto the tab you're using for the call - and you'll see the unmute icon towards the bottom (11:01) ** rjhidaho joined the room (11:02) ** jhblogger joined the room (11:04) RhondaL/Remlane1: My Skype headset has a pod with a volume control dial and a switch. Not sure if that helps. Might be moot now, anyway. (11:04) ** jhblogger left the room (11:05) Gideon: Liz - you can also just ask your question here if you still can't get through on the line (11:05) RhondaL/Remlane1: Yeah, I'm gonna fiddle with that tagline and see what plays out. Especially now that it's Derby time. (11:07) RhondaL/Remlane1: Is the drumming blogger still on?
