Free NAB Registration for CTD Readers
I just got an email from someone on the NAB Show Team letting me know of a couple of exhibits at this year’s show that might be of interest to some of you.
The Technologies for Worship Pavilion offers comprehensive training for house of worship staff and technical volunteers and is the focal point for all things related to worship technology at the NAB Show. In addition, you may be interested in Destination Broadband - the newest broadband-centric exhibit at the 2010 NAB Show. It will be featuring technologies like online video platforms, streaming video, mobile video distribution, and much more.

MediaCore: An Open Source Media Publishing Platform
MediaCore is a free open source video, audio, and podcast publishing platform. It is built for organizations who wish to distribute media in a variety of formats on their website while maintaining the ability to control the user experience.
The purpose behind MediaCore was to make a central media library that could pull media from any source, track statistics, enable commenting, and provide a high degree of control over the presentation and administration.
Vimeo to get 1080p and Mobile Support
It’s been discussed before that Vimeo is a fantastic deal for churches looking to offer video online on the cheap. Now, if you’re a paying customer ($60/yr.) you can expect support for 1080p and mobile playback (as in, your Vimeo content on an iPhone). That’s a pretty sweet deal!
VideoLobby.com: Custom Webcasts
This could be cool. VideoLobby.com lets you bring your own streaming video provider and helps you smash together a slick looking website that delivers your video content and integrates Twitter and Facebook and facilitates moderated comments. Awesome! It’s also free.
Cisco: By 2013 Video Will Be 90 Percent Of All Consumer IP Traffic And 64 Percent of Mobile
Here’s an interesting look at the future video will play in our near online future (by play I mean dominate). Just goes to show that if you want to stay relevent, invest in some video equipment and skills.
One commentor, an internet marketer, mentiones his concern about this change saying, “…I can only wonder whether the transition towards video will mean the end of online direct response copy as we know it.”
That reminds me of something I read last night about how by the year 2050, reading and writing will be obsolote. Now that I find troubling. Probably because I’m an old fuddy duddy.
