June 9, 2009 - I'm so excited. It's about the new video. A second coming. No, not the High Definition TV coming this week to TV, but the second coming of Nevada County streaming video utility to allow us to view government meetings. The IT department and Granicus (a software development house in San Francisco) have corrected the problem that existed in the initial offering so that it is now accessible to us Mac users.
A couple of things to watch out for though. If you are a Mac user (the cream of Nevada County society...) you must be running OS X, and have Siverlight installed in Firefox (it crashes on Safari.) To see if Silverlight is installed in Firefox, check the "Add-ons" under the "Window" menu in Firefox.
To test this new facility, whether your work on a PC or enjoy the Macintosh environment, may I recommend you go to http://new.mynevadacounty.com/streaming/, scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "video" for the May 12th meeting of the board of supervisors. When it comes up click on item 23 in the agenda. It is the presentation by Judge Tamietti. I found it inspiring.
