We need to see if the potential here might possibly happen. It could change how we use this blog.

Angie so if I videotape a class and my videographer in each class films the class in segments less than 15 minutes each (which is YouTubes limit for regular accounts) I can just sent it straight to publication on YouTube from the iPad after class?
This could save me hours and hours that I don’t have of loading videos into my computer as long as I don’t get all jiggy by making those subtitled comments which require me to use iMovie, which subtitles Lance said – when he posted his he said he needed 1.5 hours a nite – and I agree.
Let me know. This could be a major breakthrough using the iPad – avoiding the computer – to help us get a ton more video here on the blog to share with each other. We don’t even have to clutter up the Videos hard link lists above, which process involves too many steps. We could all – as you have done above – just make a video “comment” as it were.
Doing that would take our ability to communicate here with each other about teaching to the next level. We would not need words to express what we are doing in our classes – we would just post videos in the comments.It would be effortless and solve the problem of posting video.
The only sacrifice necessary would be – if you are thinking like me – that getting those parent releases just to be able to see the kids is not worth it and we could just film with masking tape on the floor to separate our “teaching space” from the kids’ space as I did in that last video I posted. (I think I have proven that it is not necessary to film the kids if you can HEAR them on the iPad.)
