[253] eLive tips

[Richard Smith <smith@sfu.ca>]

Dear 253,

Today AND tomorrow are reading days, apparently... so you'll have  
LOTS of time to study for the midterm. If you're really casting about  
for things to do, and you figure you'll listen to the lectures again,  
you might have noticed that Week6 eLive link was hard to click on in  
some emails (it is a long URL and some email programs break it in  
two, near the question mark that is part of the URL). Two ways around  
this:

1. go to the week 6 web page and click that:

http://arago.cprost.sfu.ca/cmns253/course/materials/week6

2. edit the link that came from the e-mail (it shouldn't be broken  
across two lines, and no spaces)

3. try this link:

https://www.elluminate.com/pmtg.jnlp?psid=d1435220734.373635

Note, too, that in my hyperefficiency last week I connected to the  
site at 9am and so there is 30 minutes of "dead air" until the  
lecture actually starts. You can skip ahead of that by grabbing the  
little slider (bottom left of the eLive window) and moving it over.  
Here's a screencast that explains that process.

I've added this to our class "podcast," too...

If you add this to the "subscribe" menu in iTunes, you'll get updated  
every time iTunes does a check.

Here's the podcast URL:
