(I’m in a university setting, but I don’t teach online classes, so that shouldn’t ever be necessary.) I wouldn’t use the video-capture component. I would definitely use it, at least on occasion, but just for doing in-person/live, i.e. Wait and see how we use media in WorkFlowy, then revisit the presentation builder concept. Such a presentation would be run from a smart phone or tablet held by the speaker, instead of that stupid clicker… This could free a speaker to adapt the presentation in real time, as alotted time shifts, as she reads the audience’s interest, as she fields the Q&A. If a presentation could be ‘played’ from and ‘rewound’ to any node in the tree, just by clicking…well, that might be amazing. Where WorkFlowy might be a game-changer would be if ‘presentation mode’ preserved WorkFlowy’s strength: the heirarchical tree list. This might make it easier to create a presentation (I don’t know), but it does not fundamantally change the game - we’re still locked into a linear slide show. My impression is that you are proposing an image-enabled, WorkFlowy-linked, programmed presentation which would, like PowerPoint, be rigidly linear at presentation time. On the other hand, this may be because I loathe PowerPoint. On the one hand, I don’t currently create presentations. Thumbnails could be ‘live’ or cached, and maybe this should be settable by the user, locally and/or globally. Once you’ve implemented image support, consider providing the option to turn on a thumbnail view for urls and file paths. Variant: url thumbnails – I would use this, conditional on performance #of-me, #lolcats or #italy, #europe2014, etc. Now imagine threading the image list with tags e.g. Click on a thumbnail and the full image plus metadata loads, much as clicking on an item now opens the page view. Imagine, for example, a date+time indexed list which shows (thumbnail, caption) pairs in the heirarchical list. As a target use, consider organising a photo library - WorkFlowy seems like a natural for this. This seems like not one, but two separate features:ġ. (Thank you for including us so early in your process - feels pretty nice on this end.)
