I don’t make heavy use of video but did try conversions with several video clips in assorted formats and got good results. I gave it quite a workout and consistently got the fast, smooth conversions I was after without once having to go play with manifest files or otherwise do any debugging.

But now, with so many workers armed with cell phones, nearly all of which have decent cameras, there are so many more possibilities for using images and video in our work. Thanks to email and discussion boards, we tend to fall into "comment here, post there, respond to that" kinds of interactions.

I love that Chapter 11 is written by high school senior Nathan Kapp, the author’s son, who brings a particularly relevant perspective as he “has been playing video games his whole life."

With 3 million+ views so far, the video is a testament to the new 21st century power of the individual living in the world of social media, and should give hope to all of us who ever wanted to stick it to The Man. News reports also state that United wants to use the video in "training". Just read the comments below the original video.)

Here's a first-person video from a fellow relearning after many years: And here's one of his YouTube-based teachers: Music is a great mood lifter, memory-enhancer and helps increase the brain's neuroplasticity, important as we age. One of my favorite aspects of the uke jams are the way they are age-agnostic.

First, Terrence Wing is moving like a house afire, first with this nice piece on using Twitter as a training platform, then with this great YouTube demonstration of using the video widget in the new Twitter interface to support delivery of a whole course via Twitter. You can visit Twitter to see the course, too.)

Stores pet info, provides first aid data, and even videos of emergency medical techniques. Back in December I wrote about one of my favorite iPhone apps (and excellent example of a performance support tool), the Pocket Aid first aid app. At that time people were already asking for a version for pets, and it's just been released.

They visit Wikipedia and Google and clip art galleries to amass piles of information, factoids, job aids, video clips, and PowerPoint shows, then try to compress it into a 75-minute session. Often in coaching presenters I watch them approach their content as if they were 8th graders assigned to give a report on their "topic".

Post a link to an article, YouTube or CNN video clip (think customer service, conflict management, empowered employees, workers in trouble) and invite learner responses. Use as the basis for discussing disconnects, planning actions for aligning management strategy, and plans for leading the change.

Meantime, there are videos of rabbits and cats herding quite capably. Hiring So: If you need someone to herd sheep, hire a herding dog. But be careful of stereotypes: some corgis think this is a fun game and the sheep don’t take them seriously.

While there’s not an example in my tray, I frequently use Snagit for video editing. I’ve been playing a long time, even though I often lapse, so after a few run-throughs I rarely need to reference the whole video again. This is 9 seconds of a 4-minute video edited with the Snagit video editor (video used with his permission).

Consider universities providing "distance education" courses via a course management tool like Blackboard, into which administration can ostensibly drop at any time to read student discussion comments, watch instructor videos, review recordings of virtual classroom meetings, and access other daily course activity.

The woefully misused “comment feature” is excellent for generating learner response and interaction with video/instructor. Statistical feedback on quizzes rivals that provided by many much-pricier LMSs. See, for instance, what Tonya TKO did. For about US.17/minute
