This is the 6th episode of new educational outreach video series that was launched January 23, 2013 as part of the mission of CosmoQuest.org to provide resources and guides to educators or anyone with an interest in astronomy.

You can start by viewing the first episode on YouTube (subscribe to astrospherevids to access their productions). I am viewing this episode now and used the Blogger button to post this. The topic for this video is meteorites and presented by Jeff & Terry Menz of the River Bend Astronomy Club. Enjoy!

Milwaukee County Zoo Train 2010

This is my first video filmed, produced and uploaded to YouTube all from original video and still source. It was filmed August 2010. I uploaded it much later. When I came back to look at the stats months after upload, I found 333 views and one like.

Here I share this video with the help of this new website.

After publishing a link to my video, it was approved for sharing and rebranding. Only premium members can add new content. Everyone else can share existing content provided for access in a library. I'm looking forward to seeing the view count increase. Not sure if it will get more likes, but we'll see. I'm sure that a better video maker would get more likes if only it had more views.

Sounds cool to you?

You probably share things already as a regular social media habit. Find out how it can work for you whether you run a business or want to help support a business, your favorite artist or celebrity.

Sharing has rewards. Find out how it works by viewing the video first.

Speedyblogger Is Back! Much Cleanup Had to Be Done!

I have returned to this blog after several years of no activity. I came back to find over 53 spam comments on one now expired product offer post. I have deleted them all. These do nothing to support my website and may be bad for it so no "spammy" posts please! All further such comments will be zapped furiously with my sonic screwdriver.

Main topic is Concinnity which I will be attending tomorrow (Saturday, April 13th) all day which is located at MSOE. It looks to be an awesome event. So much to do in one day.

My club, the Milwaukee Time Lords will be running a panel at 1:00 PM. It will start with a brief introduction to the club. Then we will run our version of "Win, Lose or Draw" for Doctor Who and other science fiction fans. We play mainly for fun.

The event has a mention in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. It's got a Facebook page and a webpage. Last year, I (Milwaukee Time Lords webpage and Facebook page admin) carried much of the Concinnity publicity. It was much appreciated. It does take a lot of energy and effort to bang together web promotions when you've probably got other things to do (especially if a college student). Also our club carried much of the event also with a Q&A and video presentations. This year, we just have the one panel commitment. Others will provide lots of entertainment tomorrow.

Hope to see you there. Follow along on Facebook. Don't know if Concinnity has Twitter followers, but post with #Concinnity if you want to show support but can't be there. Support local conventions!
