Inspired by Mark Driscoll\u2019s example<\/a>, I videotaped last week\u2019s Chi Alpha meeting and put it online<\/a> using Google Video. So now you can just go to google video and search for something like \u201cJesus at Stanford<\/a>\u201d and the video will appear.<\/p>\n

Or you can just go to the xastanford.org<\/a> website and see it there. Google lets you embed the videos wherever you want. Pretty amazing, huh?<\/p>\n

Not bad for our first try. Now I need to brainstorm about making it more attractive\u2013the blackboard is pretty unappealing. For that matter, I\u2019m not all that appealing\u2013I need a fashion makeover or something. And I need to talk slower. Still, not too bad for our first try.<\/p>\n

So why do we record these meetings? I can imagine someone alleging that it\u2019s some sort of egomaniacal thing. As a rebuttal, I can only offer my poor grooming skills. Egomaniacs exfoliate.<\/p>\n

So why do we record our meetings? 3 reasons:<\/p>\n

1) We want to make it easy for our students to invite their friends to come.<\/p>\n

\nChi Alphan: \u201cCome check out this meeting. It\u2019s the best thing since sleep. And the wheel. And fire.\u201d
\nCollege Pagan: \u201cWow. What\u2019s it like?\u201d
\nChi Alphan: \u201cYour computer on?\u201d
\nCollege Pagan: \u201cYeah.\u201d
\nChi Alphan: \u201cGo to google video and search for \u2018Jesus at Stanford\u2019 \u2014 that\u2019s one of our meetings.\u201d <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

2) So our students still be part of our community when they\u2019re doing a study abroad. We\u2019ve been listened to on at least three continents. I\u2019m gunning for the whole globe!<\/p>\n

3) I sometimes refer back to previous messages and it\u2019s easy to say, \u201cYou know, I talked about that a few quarters ago. I don\u2019t have time to explain all my thoughts on that right now\u2013go get it off our website and ask me any follow-up questions you have.\u201d<\/p>\n

Since we were already recording in MP3, video was a no-brainer. We can do both easily, so why not?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
