  • And updated the FB link to not be the August one ^_^'
  • I'll drop by tonight. Not sure what to expect, but it sounds interesting!
  • Argh, I'm going to miss tonight :(
    We just watch a clients production server go up in smoke so we'll be crunching...

    Are any of the talks recorded or streamed or somesuch?
  • @TheCorinthian ouch >_< good luck with the server.

    Unfortunately we're not recording talks. I tried recording a talk on my phone a while back which had better AV than when we used a dedicated camera a while back.

    Unfortunately I haven't found a decent cellphone to tripod adapter locally, and shipping internationally Costa more than the item itself.
    Thanked by 1TheCorinthian
  • @karuji For a cellphone/tripod adapter, I use the clip that comes with the cellphone version of the Gorillapod (I think it's the Griptight One). It screws into standard tripods. I don't know if you can get the clip on its own, but the pod itself is a handy travel tripod for your phone

    No worries. I'll make a point to get to the next two :)
