WiFi, Blogs & Video at GeoCommunity

I am sitting here uploading video instructions about getting connected at GeoCommunity. If you have a look at www.GeoCommunityLive.com you should be able to find the instructions. If the technology and the bandwidth hold up we want to post video interview clips with the delegates and of course we hope to get some georants up there as well. Bag stuffing is now underway. See you later

My name is Steven, I am a geoholic

Yes it is true, I am a geoholic. I love things geo and probably go a bit over the top (well maybe a lot over the top) in trying to preach geo as the answer to everything. Geo has kept me twittering, blogging and consumes much time and has from time to time even generated a bit of income.

Talking about Chris Osborne, […]

Calling all georanters

Got an idea that you want to test on a geoaudience? If so you need to get on the Soapbox – 15 slides, 20 seconds each on autocue and an audience feeding back their approval and constructive suggestions online as you go – […]

GeoCommunity is getting close

There are only 18 days left until we kick off GeoCommunity 09. All of the residential passes have been sold but there are still some day passes available here and there are great deals on B&B if you want to stay over and come to the party. Listening to the buzz that is building about the event I know we are going to have a great conference. The Geoweb stream will be outstanding if its […]
