Experments Projects Start Of Classes

So classes officially started last week. I'm already impressed with what were going to be doing this semester especially with my Cent 315 course. Or final project for Cent 315 is a fully functioning online course system that can manage students tasks virtual machines vpn's and ways into the network (also to build the network) to audio and video and between the instructor and students as well as recording and storing the video for later use. Of course we are expected to try and get it to actually work as much as possible with the equipment we have. Sounds like its gonna be fun and challenging. Ive already picked out a few different candidates for software we can use though im still open to more. One of the things im considering is using our xserve to do quicktime streaming that may be the easeast for playing back old videos or even just handling all of the streaming. But for the live confrencing part im not so sure im looking into microsoft's communication server. Im trying to install that locally in a few virtual machines at home just to see how it goes. Man does it require a lot of things to run though. Server 2003, Sqlserver, Active Directory, Dns, IIS, and the list goes on. Was having trouble for a while trying to get it to connect to the instance of SQL server I installed finally figured out why it was not working. The SQL server version i installed was pre sp1 doh... Updating now will try again when done.

Just to start this blog off I want to post a little bit about myself, I recently graduated college with a Bachelors in Game Software Development. I am very passionate about games, having played them since I was 6 years old playing on my mother's ColecoVision. This blogs design, at least from my contribution, will be towards game concepts: Building, Tweaking, and Analyzing.
