Thanks for the reply, Marty. The as yet untapped usefulness of this technological video phenomena could prove a game changer in not only promoting York and our hobby to outsiders but also a boon to those of us already in the hobby.
One can only wonder and imagine how Barry B could have shared and extended his enthusiasm and knowledge of all things, DCS via livestreaming those York meetings he hosted. He could have not only live streamed them but also utilized the feature of video chat streaming to share his expertise and create a dialogue with DCS users worldwide.
Have you yourself, Marty, considered using that technological video streaming platform to reprise those very helpful sessions you once held at York? By doing so, you could interact with a far reaching group of folks already in our hobby who could be made aware of your streams via posts on this and other forums you post on. Such video podcasting or live video streams might also encourage both newbie O gaugers and those casual "holiday time" visitors to this and other model railroad forums to become activeand integral year round members of our hobby.
Wouldn't is likewise be great if OGR would in "real time" livestream their York Grandstand meetings for all members and visitors to this forum to actually see and experience in additional to reading a transcript from Mr. Muffin of what transpired there.
THE UNTAPPED POSSIBILITIES OF VIDEO PODCASTING, LIVE VIDEOSTREAMING AND VIDEO CHATS FOR OUR FABULOUS HOBBY ARE UNFATHOMABLE!!!
