Holy mother of goat and all her crazy nephews! I see a rant coming! Somebody sent me a link to the video of the recent AFSA election town hall meeting. The only problem is it's a huge file - 364 MB (even You-Tube would not take more than 100 MB). With my "fast" ADSL connection, it still takes 48 minutes to simply open and view the video (which is 1:19:02 in length). C'mon guys, you can do better than this. This is worse than trying to view those senate confirmation hearing videos. Imagine an FSO in Ouga or one of the -stans trying to do this with a dial up! I knitted a whole thingy for the cat while waiting for this to play! You could have placed this file in a compressed zip folder and put the video file inside or converted the WMV file into a lower bit rate, and corresponding lower quality for a much smaller file. Next time -- when it comes to file size, think small. I'm trying to see if I can compress this into a smaller file and upload the video here. Ugh! If you want to view/download this file yourself, it's here:
