Please take them down! :-(
Is that John Essak or is there another John from the 2019 conference? I
did not recognize him.
These videos give filePro, as an application, no justice. What I found:
1. No properly defined objectives
2. some of them start 1/2 way into a subject one cannot identify relevancy
3. they appear more like videos for one personal collection than for
public consumption
4. not a good idea to present a video and the speaker goes off about
his 50 year ago experience with single drive access ...
5. even for me, one that knows filePro well enough to understand what
the speaker is addressing, was hard to associate to
6. flat - not exactly a collection of charismatic speakers
7. not a good idea to upload a video where audience argues with speaker
about the "how to" and "knows best" ...
in other words, if I were to learn anything from these videos it would
be - run, run as fast as you can there is nothing for you
here.
There is a good chance that some of the points I mention above are due
to the fact that most videos just start way into the
conversation and it is hard to understand where the speaker comes from
nor how he got there. One can tell that no effort
was made to edit, cut, sort and publish these videos.
Probably, I checked looking for videos more like those uploaded by
others that focus on one or two things and address those
two "predefined" things.
Honestly, how many of you have seen these videos beginning to end?
