A couple of folks have asked where they can see my interviews from the shuttle launch. The first is with CNN’s Miles O’Brien and the second is with Orlando Sentinel Photographer Red Huber.

Based on the feedback I got from that day and other interviews, we are getting ready to launch a new video franchisee called “Inside the News.” More on that to come later. I’ll post some more clips soon.

Yesterday we did our first live video coverage at the Orlando Sentinel. (We did a trial of the Venue vote.) We streamed the launch of the Space Shuttle at OrlandoSentinel.com/live. We started our stream at 12:30 p.m. and went until after the shuttle launch at 6:36 p.m. For most of the time we showed NASA TV but at the bottom of every hour I anchored live updates with sentinel staff writers, editors, photographers and even CNN’s Miles O’Brien. First off we had a blast. We are also very happy with the numbers we got.

We were able to do this using a slingbox to send out signal back to the newsroom to stream on our site. I’d be remiss if I didn’t thank Alex Medina in Technology for all his help in getting it set up.

You can see some clips:
here, here, and here

oh and the actual launch video is here
