Note:
1. Please avoid using netbooks, ipads, smartphones, etc, to access the
webinar. Screen space is too limited to provide satisfactory reception
of presentation materials.
2. Participants DO NOT need to open account with freebinar.
3. Because of the long route (presenter -> freebinar server ->
participant), significant video delay and slow interaction response are
expected.
4. Because of the unstable internet/web environment, system hang, screen
lock, audio blackout, etc, are highly likely.
5. For the trial meetings, please send your feedback/comment to
http://groups.google.com/group/ck-erp-en

Hi, folks,

This is another reminder that the 1st trial meeting will start in about
an hour's time (1200 GMT/UTC), at http://www.freebinar.com/ckerp1 .

When joining the trial meeting, please do not enter your real name and
email address, if privacy is a concern.

After this posting, I'll go ahead and set up the trial meeting at
freebinar. When the meeting is set up, you will be able to see a banner
slide after joining the meeting. However, presentation and dialog will
only begin at 1200 GMT/UTC.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

My thanks to the people who attended the first trial meeting yesterday.

The meeting was held with myself as the presenter and two other
participants. However, we seemed to have lost one of the participants
mid-way during the meeting. The thing that I feared most (system hang
during the meeting), did not occur. However, I did not test the
functioning of hablator. I was already watching two screens while
presenting yesterday. If hablator is to be used as a backup
communication media, I would have to watch a third screen, which
certainly would have been very distracting.

As it stands, I'll probably scrap the third trial meeting to concentrate
on preparing for the actual webinar on Friday. And just a reminder, the
2nd trial meeting will start in about 13 hours' time (1200 GMT/UTC), at
http://www.freebinar.com/ckerp1 .

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

I have done the following adjustment to the webinar presentation format,

1. I made some customisation to hablator, so it can be displayed as a
vertical strip, similar to the familiar online chat format.
2. Hablator chat will replace freebinar's native chat to be the
primary presenter<->participant communication media.
3. The screen share window will be maximised to provide greater
display area for presentation material.

If you come and join the trial meeting 1.5 hours later, you can check
out and comment on the new presentation format. I am definitely
cancelling the third trial meeting, so the upcoming trial meeting will
be the last before the actual webinar on Friday.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

My thanks, again, to the two persons that turned up at the 2nd trial
meeting.

With the use of hablator, screen space for displaying presentation
material is much larger, and the meeting went smoothly.

Just a reminder that the third trial meeting had been cancelled, so
let's meet at the actual webinar on November 5, 1200 GMT/UTC.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

Just a reminder that the captioned webinar is scheduled to start in
about 36 hours. A few hours before the webinar, you may like to monitor
postings to this discussion group to check if my internet connection is
so bad that the webinar has to be postponed again.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

Just a final reminder that the webinar is scheduled to start in about 13
hours' time. I may have found a standby backup internet link.
Apparently, a shopping mall next to my home does provide free public
wifi service. However, I still need to check their link quality and
whether the shopping mall will open till midnight to night. As it
stands now, the webinar is very likely to go ahead.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

The webinar will start in about 5 hours' time.

When I tried to start the (freebinar) web meeting, it tells me that the
meeting can only be started one hour before the scheduled time (1200
GMT), so I had started a dummy trial meeting. If you visit,
http://www.freebinar.com/ckerp1 , in the next 4 hours or so, you will
see a banner slide informing you brief info on the webinar. On the one
hour mark before the scheduled time, I'll kill the dummy trial meeting
and start the actual real meeting.

Everything is good to go.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

It's (t-2)hrs and everything is still good to go.

Just a reminder that at (t-1)hr, the current dummy trial meeting will be
killed. The actual webinar (scheduled web meeting at 1200 GMT) will
begin at around 1100 GMT. However, webinar presentation will still
begin at 1200 GMT. The participants of the original trial meeting will
have to log back in, say, at around 1105 GMT. If privacy is a concern,
please do not use your real name and email address when joining the
actual webinar.

Best Regards,
CK

Hi, folks,

The (t-1)hr mark is approaching and everything is still good to go.

The trial web meeting has now been terminated. The actual web meeting
for the webinar should be up and running in 5 minutes' time. I will be
off air from the discussion group from now on. Further communication
will appear in the freebinar online chat window.

See you at the webinar.

Best Regards,
CK
