While tools can't totally substitute for skill and talent, the proper tools always make doing the job easier.

What do you use for video editing?

Just curious as to which camera you got. HD-capable?

Hi Robert - It would be criminal for me not to point out Taglocity for Outlook - http://www.taglocity.com after seeing your Outlook 2007 video ;-)
I completely agree with you that people are going to need some new ideas on how to tool email - it's getting out of control. That's what I'm trying to do with Taglocity.
Social tagging within emails, different ways to visualize bulk info and going beyond simple categories is a pretty interesting area to think about...
Would love to get your feedback.

Hello Robert,
Thank you for participating in the first interactive pod cast on Waxxi today and answering my first historic question during it so thoroughly! I really appreciated your thoughts.
Sincerely, David

Robert - You might want to take a look at the Steadycam Merlin. It's an inexpensive way of getting professional results with a video cam.
Kevin: thanks, the best way I've found to improve what I'm doing is just use a tripod and sit the damn thing down. :-)

You might want to have the webmaster of the Channel 9 site (or whoever is responsible for the html/javascript that presents the media player) update the video player displays to Microsoft provided standards for avoiding the annoying "Click to activate" tooltip over activex components business (caused by changes to IE required by the EOLAS settlement).

Robert, I'm glad the Waxxi broadcast went well. It sounds similar to Skypecasting - except that Skypecasts currently have nowhere near the functionality that it sounds like Waxxi has. I did my first Skypecast the other day, and I was appalled that there was no chat room set up - I had to do it manually, which detracted somewhat from my ability to run the show - and also no realy way for anyone participating to know who was talking, who was muted, etc.
Exciting tools, though - we'll see what the future holds for this format!

Robert,
I am late in commenting after some post-show work, but wanted to *thank you sincerely* for helping make Waxxi history with us today. Yours and Shel's content, contribution and banter with everyone in 'the room' is what made this such a great start to an exciting future of interactive podcasting. We had a lot of fun, and hope you'll consider doing another one down the line. (and thanks to David for asking the first, historic question!)
About time you got ridda the shaky cam. Now all you need is to start doing some real editing and production, Avid or Vegas it, flag up Particle Illusion or get some ArtBeats or whatnot and start kicking in some lower two-thirds. And work on your audio.
HDR-FX1 is a good basic DV/HD choice, but the lack of 24P and the lack of XLR audio inputs are MAJOR killers for me, plus the Carl Zeiss Vario only goes to 12x. One of those, "what on earth was Sony thinking" cameras. And it doesn't work as well in low-light as compared to the Panasonic's, personally I woulda gone Panasonic AG-DVX100 A/B (or AG-DVC60 for Shoulder mount'isms) or the AJ-HDC27H and Panavision Genesis (at the extreme). ;)
This HD trend still doesn't beat the film-look, imho. And for your use, HD is overkill. In the Prosumer market, I am all a DVX baby.
You shoulda let me go camera shopping with yah. A major improvement, but Sony expensive and still lacking key BASIC features. I really don't get that camera, the lack of features like 24P and XLR, is frankly, crazy.
PS - You see the news on the AVCHD format? Basically, 1080i and 720p video to 8 cm DVDs.

Brian, I'll try to get that fixed.
