I think a Podcast for each presentation would be too cool for words. :)



Most definitely. What if podcasts were available for presentations on the night after those presentations, along with web-based slides that you could check out while listening to the podcast? That would be wonderful.

Come on, we are the Ruby community, surely someone can set up a Ruby
script to automate all this, as long as someone can digitally record
the presentations and the presenters provide their slides in some
common format.

We could even use BitTorrent for the podcast downloads so no server is
too bogged down (though Ezra's offer sure is nice as well.)

I am cross posting this to the rails list as well. We want podcasts and video from RubyConf!


Yes please lets make this happen. I have this server till the end of the year and it has a very light load on it right now. My account has unlimited bandwidth every month on a fat 100Mbit pipe and I have plenty of HD space left. So come on! Lets use my bandwidth for something good. I will create an ftp account for anyone who wants to upload media from RubyConf and i will take the responsibility of creating and maintaining a web page for people to download the media from.
Anyone going to RubyConf that would be kind enough to record some video or audio please contact me on or off list and I will set up the necessary ftp accounts and whatnot. I have learned so much from everyone here that its only fair I donate a little something back. Maybe I will just install Typo and make a post about each media file as they come in with attribution and description.


I hope we can get some kind souls to take pitty on all of us rubyists who can't afford to make it to San Diego

Thoughts?
