GoToMeeting Demo and Special Discount

It’s been a while since we last played with GoToMeeting. They’ve updated their software, and now we can see both Mac OS X and Windows desktops. I’d like to start doing live screencasts with those of you who love doing them anyway – we’ll use GoToMeeting once a week and make it happen live with the stream – email me if you have an idea of what you’d like to demonstrate if you are selected to share your screen with our GoToMeeting session!

If you’d like to take advantage of the special deal, it’s only available at http://gotomeeting.com/ChrisPirillo – that link has been live since we first started doing GoToMeeting sessions with the live stream. It was interesting to see people light up when they saw the new functionality – or seeing and using GoToMeeting for the first time. I decided that for this particular re-introduction, I’d give my Kodak Zi6 another shot. It performed well enough, although I had to increase the brightness ever-so-slightly, which killed some of the finer details of what was happening on-screen. Still, I think you get the idea. I could have also recorded the GoToMeeting session on-screen, but it was much more fun to dynamically interact with the camera in front of me.

So, stay tuned – if you have ideas for what you might wanna demo live in a GoToMeeting session, and you have a good microphone, screencasting experience, and a clean desktop, please let me know. I’ll bring you full-screen and let you narrate the entire thing! Of course, I might ask questions here and there. Who wouldn’t?
