The WordPress.tv modsquad convened today in the WPTV SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/ channel to discuss the happenings of the week:
- Recovered WordPressTV Twitter account (Props Michael Pick) and hooked it up to our site. All videos published now will also be shared automatically with our Twitter account. 🙂
- First new tweet: https://twitter.com/WordPressTV/status/624250439429521408
- Trac ticket to add Twitter player cards, may not work with the Flash player in VideoPress 1.0 – https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/976
- Upcoming post on adding hashtags to custom tweets before publishing.
- Early feedback from our first trials of Amazon Elastic Transcoder. Was able to transcode a 2GB RAW video file into a tidy ~600MB mp4. Hoping to roll out faster/easier downloads to reduce the barrier to contributions to post-processing.
