Day One of the first regular week of the 2007 K-12 Online Conference is up and running! Being online with Sheryl and Lani for the launch this morning, I felt like someone watching the launch of the space shuttle or another rocket from Cape Canaveral. 
“Mission control, we are GO FOR LAUNCH. Repeat, we are GO on all systems. STS-K12Online07 is GO FOR LAUNCH!”
Both the audio and video podcast channels for the conference have been updated, but for some reason my iTunes is having trouble downloading the videos which are in .m4v format (Liz and Clarence’s presos). The video presentations in .mp4 format (the 3 Amigo’s presentation and Silvia’s) show up in iTunes and download/play fine. We’re working on this, I’d be curious if others have this issue in iTunes. I can download the .m4v files in Flock, but for some reason Safari doesn’t like the links and tries to download them as text. This may be a local browser issue I have. Of the video versions of presentations we have this week, I think these two are the only in .m4v format. Strange.
Despite these questions, it appears we have a successful launch to the first week of the 2007 regular conference. “Houston, we have booster separation. STS-K12Online07 has reached earth orbit and is now transmitting content for a global education audience!”
