Class of 4.1

This is an audio recording of an impromptu conversation I had on Skype along with three other participants.  It was simultaneously aired on Ustream.tv. 

We briefly discussed topics ranging from website hosting, community development in Brooklyn, poverty reduction in Guyana, South America,  as well as a recent church visit to the White House.

Grateful for your questions, comments and/or suggestions.

Here is my introduction.

Hello,

I was not satisfied with the quality of the audio of  the interviewee, and as a result edited the recording. 

Here is the edited version of the conversation submitted for review.

Music used in recording: Duckett - Wired But Disconnected - ccmixter.org/files/duckett/17456

                                      Phusion - I'll B There 4 U - ccmixter.org/files/phusion/653

The second interview is with Rick Reo, an Instructional Designer at George Mason University and fellow 4.1 classmate. He's interested in the use of Web 2.0 technologies and Open Educational Resources in enhancing education. An interesting discussion, and the audio was better--a little echo in the beginning that Jeff managed to fix!

This is the first of two interviews I conducted in October. It took me a while to get the audio up here because I had to do some serious editing in audacity :-). My audio was clear, but in both cases the interviewee's audio was weak.

Hello everybody

I hope it's not to late to get started and that my technical things are ok. I didn't seem to get the options when I wanted to record in mp3 - maybe this is because I haven't got the beta version.

Looking forward to your comments - as I'm in France, I seem to be sleeping when you're all active and vica versa !!

bye for now

This is an introduction lesson.  I'm using  a Windows XP laptop, a Lexicon 2 channel mixer, a Sennheiser mic on a boom.
