A good brainstorming session that explores the idea of using SpeedGeek Learning as a platform for R&D. It also brought up the idea of sorting through sessions by date, author, and tag. A design idea was floated for signifying a particular sorting group with a band of color over the videos in question.  9867k v. 1 Oct 13, 2009 9:47 PM Benjamin Wilkoff

This is the initial discussion with Tom Metz about how the prototype for SpeedGeek Learning will be developed. It will be done in Drupal with the ability to create an infinite number of sessions. We will not be doing the front page as a part of the prototype, only the session page.  2289k v. 1 Sep 30, 2009 7:26 PM Benjamin Wilkoff

SpeedGeek Learning Conversation about the roadblocks Tom has run into in the initial research. So, far the two biggest ones are the lag on the carousel with youtube embeds and the chat room needing to be different for each sppedgeek session. Two solutions: Make every embed an image until it gets to the front of the carousel and use the PHP chat but only do 1-10 different chat rooms for initial prototype. Prototype will be ready to go live by November 1.  1474k v. 2 Oct 4, 2009 5:20 AM Benjamin Wilkoff
