Add a Comment Now - We Want to Hear From You
One of the things that we’re trying to do at NetQoS is to get more dialogue and exchange within the customer community. Network performance monitoring is complex and engineers are coming up with wonderful ideas using our products and other vendors’ products as well. Ideas too good not to share.
We’ve set up a Google Community-slash-Forum for our customers at Google Groups. Why Google Groups? Well, we want a more robust platform to support profiles and more customer-to-customer interaction, but for right now, we just want to build the community up so that we can justify the building or licensing of said robust platform.
Sadly, only NetQoS customers are allowed to join up to the Google Group above. Then again, we can always set up another group for Network Performance Daily fans – leave a comment if you’re interested.
McCain’s speech lighter on bandwidth, hosted on YouTube.
In contrast to Barack Obama’s convention speech, which was available direct from the VNC in high definition using Microsoft Silverlight, the GOP decided to put McCain’s speech out there in standard definition on YouTube. It was available in both a standard quality and high quality (that’s compression and resolution, not a value judgement of the rhetorical content).
As we promised, we repeated the test for McCain’s speech that we did for Obama’s – McCain clocks in at 146MB standard quality/384MB high quality for a 60 minute speech. If you recall, Obama’s speech clocked in at 1.11GB.
