- ooh! presentation on remote audiences. That's what we do! :) Hoping to get some good tips. #transliteracyby solobasssteve via twitter at 2/9/2010 3:32:38 PM

- She says it's about "Going Beyond Twitter" - and understanding what the potential is. Needs to be more than twitter and not 'cut them out'.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:34:55 PM
- She says there are the problems of bias in the coverage of events using only twitter.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:35:27 PM
- How do you get an un-biased complete view of what's happening.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:35:53 PM
- Trying to make the audience less of a 'second class citizen' - they used live video and Cover It Live which they linked up to the live tweetstream [as we are doing here with scribblelive].by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:37:16 PM
- She also acted as a relay facilitator for the event - sending questions and comments out.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:37:52 PM
- Working on a site on 'Withholding Tax Congress' - very specialist where people paid to have access to the content.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:40:00 PM
- They used live video - and needed to think about the 'different literacies' needed to experience the event in different ways. The livestreams were there are used a web team to get questions from people outside the room.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:41:06 PM
- They put all the presentations in slideshre - giving access to the slides which you could look at concurrently with the presentations.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:41:51 PM

- "We did use twitter - but we didn't expect the bankers to Tweet - they didn't!"by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:43:37 PM
- #transliteracy remote audiences access events in a variety of ways that organisers don't know about - so need to cover a lot of bases!by LIS4G33 via twitter at 2/9/2010 3:44:10 PM
- You need to think about how audiences can access the content and what thye will do with it; how do you open up the content to them without cutting them out?by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:45:05 PM
- Also need to be literate in all of these things as a facilitator - this is a skill that needs to be learnt and constructing that into a blog post is tricky as a set of tweets does not necessarily form a coherent narrative.by brian_condon at 2/9/2010 3:46:18 PM
- Good practical points about accessibility in #transliteracy, as well as transliteration skills required of remove audience facilitators.by Jagusti via twitter at 2/9/2010 3:47:46 PM
