[meteorite-list] Exciting prospect - and LIVE video feed of the auction??? Please?

[Shawn Alan]

MikeG, Michael and  Listers,

I think it would be a great idea to broadcast the auction via the internet. All Michael would need is a yahoo, AOL, or Skye account and a computer with a cam and a mic and there you go. He could broadcast that and then put out a post on the screen name and when people wanted to view the video, all someone has to do is allow that user to see the video. This is a great idea MikeG and hope Michael or someone else would be able to do this at the auction. For I wont be going to the Gem show and I think auctions are the best to watch and bid on. I know I would be watching for sure if someone sets this up and I think alot of other Listers too. Or the live feed could even come from someones website if they have the ability to do that. Lets hope someone can do this :)

Hi Michael, Greg and List, 

Great idea on the mystery box. I love it. :) 

It reminds me of the episode of Family Guy where Peter is offered his 
choice of a free boat or the "mystery box". And Peter chooses the 
Mystery Box while stating - "the boat is a boat, but the mystery box 
could be anything, even a boat!" 

I bet this box has something better than tickets to Improv inside. ;) 

BTW - Michael, does the auction venue have Wi-Fi or internet access? 
I bet many people would enjoy watching a live video feed of the 
auction or perhaps some live snippets of the action, interviews, etc. 
Would it be possible to set up a streaming video feed on a laptop or 
smartphone and broadcast this feed live to the internet? 

Best regards, 

MikeG
