How can I stream on uStream?
Usually, when there’s no video, Chris is not streaming; however, sometimes the problem could lie with uStream. If there’s no video try pressing the “Reload Video!” link. If you still don’t have any video, then either nobody is streaming or uStream is having technical problems.
How do I get my stream added to the community list?
Just tell one of the ops in the chat room. You can also speak with ChrisPirillo (aka l0ckergn0me), Bear, or LordKaT in the chat room.
What are those lights above Chris’ desk?
Chris purchased six TIX Binary Style LED Color Changing Random Pattern Clocks for his home office computer desk hutch.
What are those monitors? They’re bigger than he is!
Chris is sitting in front of two Dell UltraSharp 3007WFP monitors – 30 inches running at 2056×1600 resolution each.
What is that keyboard Chris is using?
He’s typing on his newly acquired aluminum keyboard, an Enermax KB002 AURORA, recommended by community member Moonglave.
What is Chris using to stream/record?
Chris uses a Cannon GL2 DV camera connected via Firewire for video, and a Samson C01U USB Studio Condenser Mic for audio. Sometimes Chris relies on a Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision or an Apple iSight.
It’s not mountain dew, and it’s not Starbucks. If he’s drinking coffee, it’s probably Peet’s Coffee, and if it’s in a green plastic bottle it’s Perrier Water. We assume that if he was ever drinking the Starbucks or Mountain Dew the world might come to an end. We’re hoping this does not happen.
What chair is Chris sitting in?
Chris is sitting in a Gral Synchron 8. Dual back supports for twice the comfort!
Chris and Ponzi have two dogs: Wicket and Pixie. They are a mixed breed: Lhasa, Apso, Shiatsu, and Poodle (affectionately known as Lhasashitzpoos).
Who the heck is that hot babe hanging around Chris? Who is Ponzi?
Ponzi is Chris’ wife, and a damn good cook! She helps run the management side of Lockergnome and Gnomedex, and also has her own blog at Ponzarelli.com.
