The Women of Buzztouch / And Men Who Support them Google Hangout Recording Now Available!

I want to thank everyone for helping us launch The Women of Buzztouch group on Google Hangouts. Susan, Andrea, & Myself created this group so we can have a venue where girl developers could hangout and help each other out. We came up with Google Hangouts to create this event. I encourage everyone on buzztouch to look into this great way to Market, Advertise, Connect, Teach and just "Hangout" like we did last night. You know when you say it's ladies night all the men come running...sheesh...just teasing I had a blast and thank all of you who participated and the ones who were not able to or got blocked accidentally I truly apologize and hope this recording makes up for that To let you guys know Google Hangouts is feature of Google Plus where you can have you and 9 of your friends "Hangout" online. You can chat, video chat, voice chat, share screens, wear silly hats, and have sound effects. we had two hours of just getting to know one another with mainly David Book sharing his vision of buzztouch and giving some improve "geek out" lessons. It was fantastic. There are no time restrictions on Google Hangouts and the best part it is totally FREE..all you need is a google plus account and youtube if decide you want live features. ...We were not able to test the youtube live feature which was a total bummer ...the great thing about this feature is you can share the url and even embed it on your website and I what I understand it has capacity to record your hangout for later viewing. I was not able to recorde through youtube .. Good news however is that I grabbed my camtasia and was able to record some to the conversation. Please make sure you have HD on to see the screen clear. Here is the playlist. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QqyWoXHWJA4&list=PL3RKOSx9FVQ0thaoj7cDykurRYrbhwL5r&feature=plcp Thanks again for all the support and dedication. We will be hosting more Google Hangouts in the future both evening and days....we are in the testing phase right now but have great ideas in the future where it will be more girly talk....guys are welcome but we might be talking about feminine hygiene products and recipes ....JUST Joking! Thanks again for a great experience! Sheri

It was great to see "live action" BT for the short amount of time that I "hung out". I will definitely be participating in next hangout :) Thanks for putting this together!

haha attention to detail, huh It's a habit, I have to be constantly moving. Roommates don't like me playing drums at night lol so I resort into banging on my desk with my wacom pen.

Hi Sheri, Thanks a ton for recording this hangout session. I really enjoyed watching this video. I regret that my time zone did not allow me to participate in the session but am looking forward for the next hangout you guys might arrange.

I really wanted to immortalize this moment, so I tried to do a screen shot. Here it is : https://dl.dropbox.com/u/14540206/temp/WomenOfBuzzTouch.png (ok, it was after 45 mins, 12 secs) It doesn't really do justice to the event, I followed it and David is such a real natural teacher. I was really worth it to watch and thanks. Won' t do any screenshots anymore, promise.

@Sheri, it was a awesome event - thanks to you and the other 2 girls for hosting it! @paddy, if only you saw me. I literally had not slept for 2 days.. You'll definitely see me at the next one, hopefully with more participation when I can get my microphone to work a little better! Cheers, David https://buzztouchmods.com
