[Haskell-cafe] Making videos of your project

[Don Stewart]

Hey guys,

I've been making quick youtube videos of projects to convey what they
do. Here, for example, using Tim Docker's Charts library in ghci:

(Click on the HD button for higher res).

Or one of Neil Brown's "SG" OpenGL graphics library,

You can create your own really simply:

    1. install 'recordmydesktop'
        I use: recordmydesktop --no-sound --v_bitrate 2000000
    2. type 'recordmydesktop'
    3. do something with haskell
    4. hit control-C
    5. upload out.ogv to youtube

If you're a library author of one of the 2 or 3D packages, please
consider video along with other "why I want to use this" material.
