Robarts.com Website Chat Blog (24th. April 2012)
DJAS. (robarts.com) is online.
Timothy: Hi David
DJAS: Hi Tim
Timothy: I have not emailed anybody since Group 1 – may continue with the rest of them today and / or tomorrow.
I have been busy with the replies which I received about Turing
DJAS: Ok
Timothy: not a lot of people replied but the ones who did so were very helpful
that is precisely what an EDL is intended to identify IMO
Sent at 11:32 AM on Tuesday
Timothy: sending ONE single email to 150 recipients in order to receive ONE single useful reply is the way to get ahead I would say
DJAS: Indeed
Sent at 11:40 AM on Tuesday
Timothy: I will copy you with one which I received from Bernie Reeves in the USA – a friend of J. Street Brewer in Charlotte in North or South Carolina
DJAS: Ok
Sent at 11:55 AM on Tuesday
Timothy: now sent to your Robarts.com email address. Please read it asap. Tim.
Sent at 12:01 PM on Tuesday
Timothy: Hi David
DJAS: Hi Tim
Timothy: did you see the email from Reeves yet ?
DJAS: Yes
Very good response
Timothy: yes I agree – a useful contact and a very well-informed one too in Intelligence matters – I will see if I can get him to BoldChat soon
Please take a look at this – This is a video presentation which I would like to have on my website
Sent at 3:25 PM on Tuesday
Timothy: Let me know if it can be done please and what you think of it – this video lasts for less than 60 seconds and delivers the message very well
Sent at 3:28 PM on Tuesday
DJAS: The video at the top right?
Timothy: yes of Lynne McTaggart speaking
DJAS: You want the video of her, or a video of you?
Timothy: primarily of me as it is my website – but you would be welcome David ! and anyone else who we wished to introduce to the World
DJAS: Ok – good. I thought you meant you wanted that video of her.
Of course, we can easily make a video of you and put it on the homepage.
Timothy: well I do think that it is rather impressive – Michele is interested in her book on medical ethics – but I showed it to you as an illustration of what we could do with a video of me
Good thats great thanks
DJAS: Yes – you do realise that you are never going to impress me with a video of some American quack going on about spiritual healing, based on zero scientific evidence!
Timothy: I would also like to have an online payment facility and a web cam as well as call recording
DJAS: However, when I next visit, we can use my Flip video recorder to make a video.
And when we order your new computer, it will come with a built-in webcam.
Which will allow you to make and publish videos to your heart’s content.
Timothy: ok I understand – Michele and I just thought that Robarts.com could well develop a more dynamic image with a video to show the World
yes that will be very helpful indeed
DJAS: Indeed
We can easily do the video – you just need to write the script.
Timothy: good – well I look forward to your coming visit soon – give me another week or so to organise the funding
DJAS: Ok
Timothy: yes I will work on that important aspect
DJAS: We can set up the online payment system now, but it would be easier if we had a product to sell.
Timothy: I will have a booklist for you to order for us soon if you will
DJAS: Ok – no problem
Timothy: 🙂
we could try to encourage our EDL members to make modest subscriptions for the ability to view the website which would otherwise be secure and PW protected
we could start by selling Nansen’s book which he is going to help me to distribute worldwide
about Solar PV Energy
I spoke to him in the USA last week – he is keen for us to do it for him – he has ‘hundreds’ of spare copies of his book available at US$ 12.00 each Plus P&P.
DJAS: Ok – well, we could easily sell them from robarts.com.
Does he have a website?
Timothy: I can send you the MP3 copy of the telephone conversation if you give me a day or two to prepare the file to send you
DJAS: And are they on Amazon?
Timothy: I do not know that – good question – I will have to speak to him or to email him again this week
DJAS: Ok
Timothy: He belongs to the Solar High Group as they call it and that certainly does have its own website
http://solarhigh.org/

Timothy: http://www.cgpublishing.com/Author_Bios/ralph_nansen.html
DJAS: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Energy-Crisis-Solution-Space-Apogee/dp/1926592069
It would be better to find a product that isn’t already on Amazon.
Sent at 3:58 PM on Tuesday
Timothy: Yes I suppose so but I am prepared to provide these books to anyone who is interested in a promotion of the webiste for a subscription (annual) which would include a copy of the book
Sent at 4:01 PM on Tuesday
Timothy: this would be part of the Renewable Energy program which Bill Snyder is going to help us with
DJAS: Ok
Sent at 4:04 PM on Tuesday
Timothy: can we make the Blog and the Forum secure and PW protected so that it will only be available to subscribers ?
DJAS: Yes
If we wanted to
I could do that in about 30 minutes or so.
However, I don’t think it would be a good idea at the moment.
We do already have a section of the discussion group that is secure.
But we need to keep on attracting people to the site, not blocking their entry.
Timothy: mmmmm ok – if you say so – you may well be right
