This is an awesome tool I saw at the Evergreen conference. I used it on the Merlin git repo which was cool to see but since everything is in a flat directory structure and it's mostly Jessica (and a little bit me) committing it's not nearly as cool as some of the videos from other projects.
Yeah, this looks very promising. Interestingly enough it is through Lyrassis, the company from which I am considering purchasing online courses. Go figure! How do we promote? Are all of the members on the training listserv? Can we just forward this email out on it?
Not all, just some, but this might be the kind of thing we'd cross-post on (i.e., to the Mobius-users-l list as well as the Training-l list). Christopher is usually the one who posts to the lists about training, and he does it across several lists; you may want to check with him.
As far as promoting, I don't know-- first of all, will Lyrassis let us promote their stuff? I don't see why they wouldn't, but you never can be sure with some providers. But the lists are usually where a lot of the action is. We might also want to do a blog post to the MOBIUS website, too.
FYI, the training list is largely defunct. It was populated by people who were interested in discussing training with the MOBIUS office, but I was the only one who ever posted anything.
It's a question of what did our users not like about Adobe Connect: 1) It was very complex to use, 2) it was clunky, 3) the audio sucked, and 4) use of the software was pretty much rammed down their throats. If BBB does what Adobe did, but better, AND if we ease the users into using it, then we might have better success.
