[Trailer for members show] Last show of the year so I thought I'd do something different. This week I take you through the ScreenCastsOnline workflow, from preparation, through recording and editing, on to encoding and subtitles to final testing and publication. The whole process is fairly complex so I've broken it down into manageable chunks.
Whilst not intended to enable you to make your own screencasts (although it can be quite simple), the show this week is in response to the may requests I get each week asking to "peek behind the curtain", and see just what is involved in producing the weekly show. The last "Behind the Scenes" show was back in episode 200, over two years ago. The basic workflow has remained pretty similar but I've introduced some additional refinements, as well as making a ton of extra work for myself. Believe it or not, the actual process is even more complex than this as there are some minor steps I've left out.
I'm hoping to streamline the publication side of things in the New Year with the launch of a new website based on a bespoke content management system, which should automate a lot of the manual processes involved in producing the RSS feeds and publishing to the websites. Once that is in place, I'll need to start looking at automating or outsourcing more of the video production work.
But until then, take a look at how things are organised now and wonder how on earth I manage to produce a show every week - I know I do!

Jennifer Granholm spoke with Fareed Zakaria about where American jobs have gone and offers up a perfect case study to show that despite their skill at repeating it ad nauseam, the GOP's answer for jobs just won't work : >
Among the lessons that hit home the hardest occurred back in 2003, when she tried to keep an Electrolux plant in Greenville, Mich. (the "Refrigerator Capital of the World"). Then-Gov. Granholm offered the company all sorts of incentives, including tax breaks and worker concessions, only to be told by Electrolux that "there is nothing you can do to compensate for the fact we can pay $1.17 an hour for labor in Mexico."
On the factory's last day, as Electrolux was completing the move to Ciudad Juárez and the last of the 3,000 employees were laid off, she remembers one of them coming up to her and saying, "I'm 48. I went from high school to factory. All I know is how to make refrigerators. Governor, who is going to hire me?"
Granholm rightfully points out that whither Michigan has gone, so too will the whole country until we start having a conversation about keeping American jobs that doesn't not solely include tax cuts and concessions from labor.
One of the most immediate and obvious ways that we can stop this trend of outsourcing American manufacturing jobs is to stop these stupid free trade agreements that benefit corporations to the disservice of American workers and start working on fair trade agreements, which include tariffs for goods produced outside the country, as Thom Hartmann describes it here:
For years, we were the largest creditor nation in the world. Then we started knocking out tariffs and promoting free trade agreements in the 80's and lo and behold! corporations became wealthier and wealthier and the nation became a debtor nation.
If tax incentives were all we needed to get the "job creators" bringing back jobs, we wouldn't have the economy we have now. Plain and simple. We must change the narrative from that relentless talking point.

What do TARP, Wired Magazine, The New York Times, David Brooks, Ayn Rand, Alan Greenspan, Malcolm Gladwell, and libertarianism have in common? They're all "rich people things," according to journalist Chris Lehmann, a veteran of Mother Jones, In These Times, Tikkun, New York magazine, and The Washington Post. In his engaging new book of essays, drawn from his contributions to The Awl, Lehmann explains why what he calls the "airless dogma" of Rand, the "hollow...comic sociology" of Brooks, and other excresences of wealth suck. Lehmann skewers the iPad: In his view, the hype surrounding Apple products helps the company distract consumers from its practice of outsourcing youth-destroying tasks to Chinese factories staffed by workers living in cockroach-infested dormitories. Reason's Nick Gillespie sat down with Lehmann, who has contributed to Reason, to talk about his collection and to ask how "rich people things" like the Democratic Party and Michelle Obama's vacation fit into his worldview. Among the surprises: Lehmann grants that Ayn Rand's popularity remains an interesting phenomenon, that the left is all but dead, and that libertarianism is a vital force in America today.

Eric Blantz, senior director of Inveneo, analyzes the idea of an internet kill switch from a human rights perspective. He argues that until there is a way to make a kill switch that is "democratically and responsibly controlled," Internet access needs to be protected as a human right.

As the 2007 protests in Burma, the 2009-2010 post-election demonstrations in Iran, and recent events in Tunisia and Egypt have stunningly demonstrated, the Internet and mobile phones have become powerful tools to bring together those whose freedom is being denied. Social networks have been used to organize protests, and new media have been widely used to document the unfolding of those attempts at establishing a new period of rule of law and political freedom. In response to these threats, governments have successfully monitored cellphone networks and attempted to shut down Internet access, posing a threat to the security of human rights activists. This panel will discuss how people can communicate in face of a complete shutdown of key communication infrastructures imposed by their government. - Human Rights Center UC Berkeley

Prior to joining Inveneo, Blantz held positions at G2 Research as a Senior Consultant in IT services research; Gartner as a Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) Program Director; and US Web as a Sr. Business Consultant.

"http://twitter.com/chrispirillo - This video features Matt Barie, CEO of Freelancer.com, the world's largest online freelancing portal. If you have an idea to create a competitor to Facebook, Twitter, Wikipedia or Google, but you lack the programming talent, you can still do like Kevin Rose did to start Digg.com, what Steve Jobs did to start Apple and what Bill Gates did to start Microsoft, you can just have someone else do all the programming work for you for cheap! Now that we have the Internet, why not hire someone to do it for those $500 or so that you have been saving up? The potential for building your ideas by worldwide freelancers is huge, but this is also a functionality that needs to connect worldwide freelancers with the companies and idea people who want to build new tools and apps on the web. This is outsourcing of programming and any other remote work you can think of, among thousands of categories of work. If you have some idea, but you don't have the programming skills to create your idea, consider checking out freelancer.com and sites like it to get the job done. What do you think about globalised online freelancing? Have you used it? This video was filmed by Charbax of http://ARMdevices.net at LeWeb 2010 in Paris."
