Re: Wikipathways presentation: Google Hangout - 10 participant limit

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the tips. It looks like Google Hangout remains an option if it
can be viewed by more than 10 with the On Air option. Just will be sure to
choose the Hangout On Air option. Then, I suppose we could also take
questions and comments via IRC and Skype.

I (we?) also had problems getting a full screen view of the presenter's
screen - couldn't find a right-mouse command or anything using instincts.
Do you know off the top of your head how to view the presenter's screen in
full-screen mode?

Cheers,
Scott
