Educating the Open-source Community With Showmedo

Although as important as the software it supports, education and documentation are relatively neglected in the Open-source world. Coders love to code, and explaining how best to use or improve the software tends to be deferred or even sidelined.

At Showmedo we believe the community can play a vital role here and also say thanks for the tools and software that make our lives easier. If you have a piece of software you love or a programming langugage you are enthusiastic about, why not make a screencast showing others how to use it? All the stuff you wish you'd been told, the tips, tricks, insights that would have saved you time and frustration.

Screencasting is easier than you think, and we're happy to help you. You can emailus for advice or just use some of the how-to screencasts on the site. This screencasting learning-pathis a good place to start.

Kudos and Thanks for Dai
Import from Google Docs To OpenOffice

Hi Dai,

Yes, your new mic is great. It is much clearer and less noisy. I don't know where you record your videos, but the acoustic is slightly reverberant. You can fix this with a bit of sound deadening, probably fitted to the wall behind you, but it depends on the room. This stops reflected sound being received by the mic and would make the sound even better, but hey, a great improvement anyway. BTW, thanks for the videos, they are really useful!

Creating Relationships

This one was good also. However, the list of fields that he shows within his "Appointments" in this tutorial has more then what he showed and did in his prior exercise. I remember seeing the entire list of fields in the overview video so I used that to guide me to add the missing fields in order to follow his instructions on this exercise. Could get confusing for some people.... Thanks again! -Ron
