I generally add hundreds of slides to my Google Slides app for each of my monthly shows.

I generally add hundreds of slides to my Google Slides app for each of my monthly shows. It was really getting tedious to manually add them one at a time then size them and center them before moving on to the next image. Last month I started using Slides Toolbox and it has literally saved me hours of work. It does a lot more than this but it is totally worth the premium price for this alone. Highly recommended!

YouTube rolling out Live Chat Replay (and more)

YouTube rolling out Live Chat Replay (and more)

I know there has been a lot of interest here in trying to find ways to preserve live chat conversation. It sounds like this update may fit the bill.

Today we are starting to roll out chat replay to YouTube, so you can follow the conversation even after a live stream is over. Live chat replays will show up alongside the video, exactly as it appeared live.

I haven't seen in in action and the help center isn't updated yet with details, but it sounds promising.

New YouTube Live features: Super Chat triggers real world events, live chat replay, auto-captions, location sharing and more

Today's updates make like streams more accessible and more fun:

* Live chat replay lets people follow the chat after the live stream is over.

* English automatic captions are coming to live streams " with error rates and latency approaching industry standards"

* You can now add a location tag to mobile live streams and video uploads. People can find uploads by location filtering in search or by clicking a location tag.

* Set up Super Chat to trigger real life events -like blinking your lights - using IFTTT
Set that up here: https://ifttt.com/youtube

Andrew -- I watched your Before and After video and clicked on the link to the website to be greeted with "Stupeflix Studio is closing

After 8 years of helping you make amazing videos we have decided to close down the service on August 31, 2018.
What does this mean?

The service is now closed to new users.
For existing users (non subscribers), the service will remain available until August 31. 2018.
For subscribers, your current subscription will be unaffected and the service will be made available to you free of charge from the end of your current month/year (as applicable) subscription term through to August 31, 2018.

After August 31, 2018 the service will be shut down and you will not be able to access the service or any of your media stored on the service.
We therefore suggest that you migrate any of you media before that date to avoid losing it."

A Quick Test

A Quick Test
Looking for volunteers to help test something

1. Click link to go to test video [length= approx.1 minute]
2. Change player speed from normal to .25
3. Mute volume as the audio will be AWFUL.

That's it - you are finished.
I'll report back on actual watch times credited.

I've been MIA for a little over a month. I'd like to tell you it wasn't by choice!

I've been MIA for a little over a month. I'd like to tell you it wasn't by choice!

It started with an "infection of undetermined origin" in my left leg. I'll spare you the details but it left sitting with my leg propped a nasty regimen of antibiotics.

Just when I thought it was safe to go in the water.................

I started coughing and wheezing and after a cotton swab shoved half way up a sinus cavity I was told: "You have Type 1 Influenza!"

After two weeks of feeling like I was fixing to die and one week of getting my energy back I am finally back to being me. I think, lol

I wanted to explain why I suddenly vanished. It wasnt intentional. Trust me. Anyways, I am back

Creators with Chromebooks: which tools and services do you use?

If you use a Chromebook during your creative process - whether you make novels, articles, photos, drawings, videos, music, podcasts, or really anything - I'd love to know what tools you use.

I'm planning to write about what apps, extensions and services I personally use on my Chromebook, and I think it would be more interesting and useful to include information about what other folks use as well.

If you use a Chromebook, and have a few minutes, please fill out form below (feel free to reshare it). Or let me know in the comments!

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfqPKSBzsthRT7Ft3eUFRu7a14RfiZ72Vq5XsOvNKpVsBVh-w/viewform?usp=sf_link

Here's a brief list of the tools I most frequently use:

* Google Docs (drafting articles, writing video scripts)
* Google Keep (notes)
* WeVideo (video editing)
* Canva (making graphics)
* Pixlr Editor (image creation & editing)
* Google Photos (photo editing)
* Screencastify (screencast recording)
* Hangouts on Air (recording video using the webcam)
* Feedly (reading and collecting articles)

Michael Daniels Andrew Hatchett Bill Graham Thought you would like to know that I solved my Pixel problem (Radio App kept turning on when not invited, etc) Michael suggested clearing the cache. I got good advice from the Forum that Andy suggested. Here's the fix: Download an App called "Files Go" and follow instructions to clear out cache plus a lot of other unnecessary junk. Thanks for your suggestions and support guys.
