[FM Discuss] screencasts....

[adam hyde]

ola,
        
After some discussion with the wonderful Marcel Mars from MAMA, I was
given some cause to re-think the use of screencasts in FM documentation.
        
I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts on screencasts? In particular
the use of ogg theora screencasts for showing basic procedures.

For example, if you could imagine a screencast of a chapter like this:
http://en.flossmanuals.net/Audacity/AddTrack
        
perhaps, linked at the top of the chapter saying 'show me' and then a
pop-up window would playback the ogg screencast....
        
i have been rethinking of this because it does seem that many people
enjoy learning basic procedures through video, and we have the tech
available so...any thoughts?
