3:28 | Ethan: Multiple authors can contribute with no special software to learn as the UI looks and feels very much like an Instant Message product. |
3:31 |  bobbarnard0205: You can even set up the coverage to pull in Twitter accounts. Great for remote reporters. |
3:32 | [Comment From From Reader from China] This is what happens when you decide to publish my comment. |
3:32 | Ethan: The writer maintains complete control over the content published. Readers can send in comments and questions without the need for a special username/password. |

3:37 | Keith: Pictures can be published with a single click... |
3:39 | Keith: There are many instances where users will use the software to collect eyewitness accounts. This is especially true during rapidly changing events like elections, storms, press conferences. |
3:40 | [Comment From Steve on the scene] You would not believe how many Jayhawk fans are here tonight. They are loud and proud. Here's a link to my page flickr.com |
3:42 | Keith: CoveritLive has been used around the world by niche bloggers and many major media outlets. The election in the United States on November 4 was one of our largest traffic days ever. |
3:44 | Keith: Stability and reliability has always been a major priority for our users. We feel we've built the service to scale and scale well. We always enourage larger users with questions to send us an email to discuss any concerns. |
3:45 | [Comment From Fanboy] What about using this software during conferences? Like product announcements at CES? |
3:46 | Keith: Tremendous question Fanboy. Thanks for asking. Conference coverage is an important segment of our business when readers want more depth, interactivity and multimedia. Covering the keynote is one thing, but we've seen the best use of the software to provide full day coverage as live Qik videos and audio clips can be quickly inserted into the live event. |
3:47 | Keith: Some users even take questions from their readers and ask them at press conferences... |
3:47 | [Comment From Wii Lover] When is the Wii Waffle Iron coming out? |

3:50 | Keith: Jessep: You want answers? Kaffee (Tom Cruise): I think I'm entitled to them. Jessep: You want answers? Kaffee: I want the truth! Jessep: You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has walls. And those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who's gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives...You don't want the truth. Because deep down, in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty...we use these words as the backbone to a life spent defending something. You use 'em as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom I provide, then questions the manner in which I provide it! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to! Kaffee: Did you order the code red? Jessep: (quietly) I did the job you sent me to do. Kaffee: Did you order the code red? Jessep: You're goddamn right I did!! |

3:52 | [Comment From CoveritFan] This was incredible text you provided. Much less confusing than that 'lorem ipsum' stuff you used before. |
3:53 | Keith: Thanks CoveritFan. I agree, why not take the time to put something useful behind here in case people decide to read it. |
3:54 | Keith: Now, I'm going to put some large chunks of text in just in case one of our users creates a Viewer Window the size of a house and we need to fill it in. |
3:55 | Keith: There. Well, I hope that does it and we see no more blank spaces anymore. If we need more filler, I'll show another image example. |
3:57 | Keith: You know, I just realized if I put an image example in, one of our users might not like the image I choose. So I'll leave that out for now. |
