| Re: [PLUG] dual networking question |
Working personally with my parish I understand how this has to be as simple as possible. I know I don't want to bring my iPad, tablet or any other device to church for a service. I do think it is more feasible today to broadcast a service or sermon live and via Pod cast than it was just a year ago. There are two long poles in this tent (no puns meant here) Cost and computer technology support. Most churches are cutting corners to make ends meet (at least in the Camden Diocese) so hiring a good consultant to handle this is a pricey matter that they may cringe at. But it is a revenue stream that you could get an advertiser to fund the monthly Internet cost. Then it comes to the tech support. We all know these things decide to go awry at the worst time. I have seen goofy scenarios when our churches wireless microphone decides to act up. Or they have to change the time of the chimes in the steeple. So a good tech support system is needed. John J.

It's a lot easier than carrying a stack of books around and gives access to all kinds of different versions and reference material. ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug ___________________________________________________________________________ Philadelphia Linux Users Group -- http://www.phillylinux.org Announcements - http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-announce General Discussion -- http://lists.phillylinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug
