Arlin and I spoke with Digital Forum TV about the HTG Peer Groups. Note that this is playing with SilverLight – so if you don’t have it installed you’ll have to install it first to see the video. (Ouch – Digital Forum TV appears to only works in IE on Windows right now)
The HTG Peer Groups are a great opportunity for Microsoft Partners – check them out at: http://www.htgmembers.com (both in person groups and the online groups). I’m in HTG3 and it has revolutionized my business. Also – Arlin has a great blog at: http://peerpower.blogspot.com
I’d like to comment a bit on http://www.digitalforumtv.com as well. This is a really interesting project from Microsoft for Partners to display solutions aimed at other partners or at clients. It’s free and the video quality is outstanding. It’s a great place to host a video if you’re a Microsoft Partner and your clients use IE. It’s also a great showcase for SilverLight – the new Flash competitor from Microsoft. Note that all the other videos I’ve uploaded are playing back using Flash – YouTube (biggest user of flash video on the web), Vimeo (wonderful quality), and even Microsoft Soapbox! (Doh!). SilverLight video will have a place in the marketplace, and Digital Forum TV definitely makes it look very attractive… The big downside is that currently DigitalForumTV only appears to work in IE on Windows. I tried Safari and Firefox 3 on both Mac and Windows and can’t get it to play the video.![]()
