As promised, I’m half-way to writing a full review of the new eFlicks program offered by the Denver Public Library. (I don’t plan on making more than one or two snide comments about the DRM in the article, at least not at this time.) I’ve gone through the system, set everything up, downloaded and watched a few vids. Throughout that process I took 52 screenshots. Now all I have to do is narrate them into an article. If you’re interested in a preview, you can view them as a slideshow on Flickr.
(I’m thinking that the article will be long enough to be posted on something like WebJunction, not here on the blog.)
