  • listener_connections:  182  (total number of listeners on all streams)
  • source_client_connections    48 (total number of streams created, or total number of recordings)

Comparing that with our podcast server:

  • total podcasts: 41 (meaning we didn’t podcast every stream, probably due to technical difficulties or poor quality recordings)
  • total listeners to all podcasts: 5939 (since September 2007)

It’s amazing to see how many people actually download our podcasts and listen to the Local User Groups.  I’m quite impressed with these numbers.  Many of the podcasts are from the Utah Open Source Conference (in both 2007 & 2008), but the podcast that has been downloaded the most is:   Ubuntu Utah: December 2007 Meeting.

To total this up, we could say that the Utah Open Source Foundation has had 6,121 listeners to over 48 different audio presentations, live or not.  We thank you for your participation and hope to see more connections in the coming years as we expand this coverage to include more and more sources around Utah Open Source Local User Groups (LUGs).

If your LUG is interested in streaming its meetings, we can help.  It literally takes a $7 microphone, a laptop with a microphone jack and a free software program called darkice.  Utah Open Source provides the server, the logins for the IceCast server, a couple bash scripts and training to get the stream running for your LUG.

Please contact us if you are interested in getting your group streamed and podcasted by the Utah Open Source Foundation.  Probably the easiest way is to email me, <clint At utos  org> with the subject “UTOS Streaming” and we’ll get you set up right away.

Cheers,

Clint
