How
Do I Get
the Show to Play? [TOP]
The
show should usually play automatically if you open the page when we're in a live
broadcast. If you're at the page on a non-live broadcast
time, click the play button in the center of the screen. (you may have to click play during a live broadcast, as well -- it seems to be spotty sometimes.)
Trouble
with the Video or Chat --
Try
closing other windows and/or programs, or try viewing at this link (no chat will show on this page): MWaP Video Only. Email me at csteinel @
madwomanatplay.com (or use the "Ask the Madwoman" link from the home page) if your techno-woes are really, really bad.
I may be able to help you (but not usually during the live version
of the show).
How
Do I Get Rid of the Ads at the Bottom of the Screen? [TOP]
You
can click the little "x" in the upper corner of the
bottom-screen ads to close them, but they WILL come back.
Ustream offers the broadcasting service at no charge, but the ads are
the exchange they get. I have no control over the content of the ads,
which sucks sometimes, as they put up ads I do not like or endorse.
If
you're interested in helping us get rid of the ads entirely, consider
making a contribution to the show so that we can afford a
"pro" account with Ustream that is ad-free!
To
donate to the show, click the Tip Jar that appears just below the player on the
home page.
How
Do I Chat
with Other Viewers? [TOP]
The
widgets to the right of the screen will allow you to chat with other
viewers, either through Ustream (upper) or Ustream chat or Twitter social stream (lower - just select the appropriate tab and log in). You
need to have an account with Ustream to use the upper widget, a Ustream or
Twitter account for the lower widget (Ustream and Twitter accounts are
free).

If
you want to leave a comment about the show, you can email me at csteinel @ madwomanatplay.com (remove spaces), or drop your comment in chat!
How
Do I Become a "Follower" of the Show? [TOP]

You can "follow" the show at Ustream by going to the Ustream
page for MWaP and clicking the "Follow" button (upper
right above the chat section).

You can also follow the show by becoming a fan at the MadWoman@Play
Facebook page

MYSPACE: You can follow me through Myspace at http://www.myspace.com/cosmiclaugh

How
Do I View
Past Shows? [TOP]
The
most recently recorded show will automatically play from the end of
the live broadcast until the next live broadcast -- just click the
play button on the home page if you're tuning in at a time when we're
not live-broadcasting.
To
view recordings of past shows, visit the Ustream Page at this link: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/madwoman-at-play
Scroll
down below the player, and you'll see a list of all available past shows. You can also see most of them at the Madwoman Blog.
How
Do I Get Notifications About Upcoming Shows? [TOP]
If
you "follow" MWaP through Ustream, Facebook, Twitter, or
Myspace using the information in the "Follower"
section above, you'll get notices of upcoming shows and events --
we'll post reminders via Twitter -- usually about one hour before each live broadcast.
How
Do I Call In for a Call-In Show? [TOP]
Currently, we're working on getting a Skype call-in feature for you -- watch for announcements!
The
Skype name for call-ins is MadWoman at Play -- we only accept
call-ins for some shows. Follow us on
Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, or Ustream to get advance notice of
call-in shows.
How
Do I Suggest a Topic for An Upcoming Show? [TOP]
Email
me at csteinel @ madwomanatplay.com (remove the spaces) to suggest a
topic you'd like to have covered during the show.
How
Do I Get On MW@P for an Interview? [TOP]
If
you've got something of interest to say, I might be interested in
interviewing you for a MWaP broadcast -- email me at the address in the
answer immediately above.
How
Do I Get
You to Advertise/Announce Something for Me? [TOP]
Same
as previous two questions -- contact me. I reserve the right to
be picky about what I'll announce. If I like what you're
announcing and it fits with my manifesto, I'll probably announce it. |
