During this class I will be willing to do at least 1 interactive session using Skype for voice and a screen sharing program I have a few I need to test to see how they perform so I'll let you know what you need to know the closer we get to the actual session.
I am looking for feedback as to how many would be interested, how willing people are to use Skype and, topics you are interested in seeing more information about.
Because we have people from all over the world we would need to schedule the session(s) pretty tightly and some coordination of connections to Skype for the conference call need to be arranged before we actually attempt this.
My current thoughts about this are:
1) Verify interest.
2) Ask people to download, install and configure Skype or another program capable of using the skype system to do the voice part of the session.
3) Schedule 1st session at least a week ahead of time for a Saturday.
4) Sessions would be about 1 to 1.5 hours depending on interest and topics to cover.
5) Topics would need to be addressed before hand so we can focus on what you all want to see.
I am also thinking of offering single sessions to single users for specific trouble shooting and technique walk through as needed. I am thinking that October 24th or November 7th are good target dates....
Also please list your time zone + / - GMT
I would enjoy hearing your thoughts on this.

P.S. Mike may be able to attend as well.

I would be interested in this. I have skype installed but I'll have to understand what configured means for skype. I haven't used it yet. Saturdays are not always good for me as I work shift work but the ones mentioned are good and every Saturday is off in November (this is so rare).
Of course I haven't worked out what that means for me. I think you are 8 hours ahead of me. Its nearly 3 in the afternoon on Monday here. I can be really flexible. I can get up early or stay up late. I would prefer not to have to get up in the middle of the night but I'd consider it. My zone is GMT+11.
I don't know about topics. There is so much. Any words of wisdom would be appreciated.
I am on night duty this week and next week. It makes me stupid, tired and irritable. I will do what I can but if you could be aware that I struggle to get through the week I would appreciate it. Still want feedback though
