Sorry jacek, but I need a minimum of 10 people, so figured asking here to a community thats interested would be good.

THIS FRIDAY - 12:00 Noon (or 1PM) GMT (find translation to your timezone if required)

LIVE PHP tutorial via hangouts note, will be recorded and placed on youtube

What im looking for from this is for people who want to learn, and will look to actively ask questions throughout the tutorials. I aim to make the show last maybe an hour or so long. But could be longer depending on our needs.

Dont worry. There will be breaks placed if you want them, All i would like to say is. Please come and join me share so that I can get a full hangout going.
Thanks

Sorry again Jacek, but I need the numbers. A live tutorial is crap without watchers :P

(This is all for an idea I had that people can ask questions throughout the tutorial instead of via YT comments)

To add me on Google+ (where it will be held) add me at http://gplus.to/bowersbros

Waiting for a partner account first, then I can livestream on my channel.

If you want to do live streams before then - you can try Vokle. I don't know if you can do a screen share on it but its good quality allows questions etc. (video or text) and free.

Im not sure how good the YouTube live stream is, but Im going to be using the Google+ Hangouts feature, so that people can join me in the stream and ask questions.

Does the YT live stream allow that?

I think there is a chat area on the page.

I can't try it out since I don't have a partner account yet ;)

No idea, I just read it on the list of things partners can do.

According to this post: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p/y ... b730&hl=en
youtube is rolling live streaming to random partners over time, it should be available to all partners soon...
I'm guessing they start with the 200k+ subs partners first.
