The Bioscreencast Blog

It’s been a week since Bioscreencast.com saw the light of day. We’ve seen some growing pains and we would like to thank you for your support, especially those who have tested out a few things for us.

Without a vibrant user community, it just becomes a site for us to upload our favorite videos. We are looking Please let us know what we can do to make your experience better

Talking about experiences, this weekend will also see some cool new features being rolled ou. We hope that they will make your experience at Bioscreencast a lot better. In the meantime don’t forget to check out the Wiki for tips and tricks.

It has been a great start to Bioscreencast, and we would like to thank everyone for their feedback and support. I am sure some of you have noticed that Bioscreencast.com does not play nice with Internet Explorer. As many of you know, Internet Explorer has issues with web standards that create problems for sites like ours. We are aware that many of you are Internet Explorer users, either due to necessity or choice, and we are looking into addressing this limitation. However, as a small “in our spare time” operation with one developer, it might take us a while before we can add support for Internet Explorer. In the meantime, if you can, downloading Firefox for viewing Bioscreencast.com on Windows is highly recommended.

While some might get the impression that Bioscreencast.com is targeted exclusively to biologists, a great screencast by Jean-Claude Bradley demonstrates that chemists are equally welcome, which of course makes the three former chemists in the team feel very good.

Jean-Claude’s video is the first external upload to the site and that in itself makes the whole effort worth it!!! We hope to see many more from many more people.
