The Spartan Daily’s live video experiment worked.
We put a big teaser on the front page of the paper today so students would know about it and then I put a brief notice in as a multimedia article on our site, so it was included in our RSS feed and e-mail edition. When it was time for the video to begin, I put the ustream embed code in the story and made it a breaking news story so a link to it showed up on every page on the site. I also recorded it, both in ustream and on a tape in the camera. After the meeting was over, people can watch the ustream recording, and I am uploading the higher quality version into our regular video player.

The Daily Pennsylvanian is going to be experimenting with live video too. Hillary Clinton is coming to campus tomorrow morning for an event and we’ll be streaming video of her speech. Check out http://www.dailypennsylvanian.com/ tomorrow around 10am to see it.
