Talk Videos from EuroPython 2010 Published!

Thanks to the considerable work of Michael Sparks and his team of video recording volunteers (Marijn Vriens, Richard Barran and WalterPy), several talks were recorded at EuroPython 2010 including lightning talks and keynotes. These recordings are now available from the EuroPython videos page at blip.tv.

Michael and his volunteers put in a considerable amount of effort to ensure that a record of the proceedings would be available for those unable to get to the conference, as well as those at the conference who were unable to get to every single talk that might have interested them. In doing so, they gave up some of their freedom to roam and to see talks of particular interest to them at a moment's notice - one of the benefits of going to a conference as a "regular" participant - in order to cover as many talks as possible for your viewing pleasure.

Without the efforts of volunteers like these, EuroPython as a community conference would not be as valuable or as enjoyable as it is. Please take a look at their work and let yourself be educated, entertained and, perhaps most importantly, inspired not only by the content of the talks made available in this way, but also by the purpose of EuroPython: to let people share their experiences and passions (and maybe even frustrations) with the Python language and the many ways in which it is applied. Maybe such inspiration will persuade you to at least consider coming to EuroPython next year, perhaps to give a talk yourself or, just as important, to help out and make this sharing of knowledge happen once again.

Many thanks to Michael and his team for sharing their experiences of EuroPython 2010 as seen and heard through their recording equipment!

Hello,

Nice work!

And what about tutorials? Mine was recorded but I cannot find it on blip.tv.

Cheers.

Hi Gustavo,

None of the tutorials were videoed. The closest to this was that I did record the code clinic (as a test run for the rest of the week), but I wasn't even in Birmingham when your tutorial was on, so that's why.

Also, the more general answer to "my talk was recorded but I can't find it on blip.tv" is this:

Whilst 103 talks (including lightning talks) were recorded, due to a lack (primarily) of volunteer resource, about 2/3 of the conference wasn't videoed - there was literally only enough people & kit to record 1/3 conference. Without volunteers at community conferences, things simply do not happen. It's still a large amount of talks and more than last year.

Audio only recording was done for every talk however, and those will be published soon I expect. In particular if you were mic'd up, that was for the audio recording, not video.

Hope that answers the question.

Michael.

Hello, Michael.

That makes sense. I had a microphone and I assumed the video camera was somewhere in the audience.

Thanks!

Woah! I'm really digging the template/theme of this site. It's simple, yet effective. A lot of times it's challenging to get that "perfect balance" between user friendliness and appearance. I must say you've done a awesome job with this. In addition, the blog loads super quick for me on Firefox. Exceptional Blog!

Hey just wanted to give you a brief heads up and let you know a few of the pictures aren't loading properly. I'm not sure why but I think its a linking issue. I've tried it in two different internet browsers and both show the same results.

Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems as though you relied on the video to make your point. You clearly know what youre talking about, why throw away your intelligence on just posting videos to your blog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?

With havin so much written content do you ever run into any problems of plagorism or copyright violation? My site has a lot of exclusive content I've either written myself or outsourced but it seems a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my agreement. Do you know any methods to help prevent content from being stolen? I'd truly appreciate it.
