bigjimslade Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Hi Everyone! I had a idea and Brad and I would like to know your thoughts on the idea. The idea is to do a 2 hour live webcast around 2 weeks before Black Friday. During the webcast you can submit your Black Friday questions through a chat feature and I will answer them live. The questions would be anything Black Friday. What time to get in line?, what is good or bad in a ad? and stuff like that. If this is something you would like to see and participate in comment below and also tell me what day of the week would work. I would be doing this in the evening. If this does work out we will be doing a second live webcast the week of Black Friday to cover the Wal Mart and other major ads. Post your comments below!

tinkrbel Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I like the idea and would probably participate (depending on what's in the ads) but would definitely watch either live or afterwards depending on date/time. I'm usually free after 5:30pm EST. It would be interesting to see what you'd fit in a 2 hour time slot though, that seems like an eternity. You should do some live contests halfway through or something to liven it up a little Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riven3d Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 anything after 5pm EST works for me. I like the contest idea, would show you just how many people are watching it live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elmck Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I like the idea too. After 6 EST and any day works except Wednesday and Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yakyma Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I think it is a great idea...loved it a few years ago when we had chat room open also. Like others...after 5:00 p.m. est...but keeping the west coast in mind, think it would probably have a greater turnout after 7:00 p.m. or go for a Sunday evening.

mcwalker Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I might listen in if no schedule conflicts. It would need to be after 7:00 PM eastern time for me. Not sure I have a question to pose, but might think of something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momlori Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 Great idea - just keep us West Coasters in mind when deciding the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gporter34 Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 I think it's a great idea and if the time was when I am off work, I would love to participate. Of course, there's no BIG stores in my area, the biggest is Wal-Mart, but it would be fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karmarose Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I like the idea, but make sure we can watch it later too. :) Btw the title name had me imagining you from a reporters box above the action of Black Friday reporting live. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lbass Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I think its a great idea! I would love to get everyone's take on the major ad's. knowing what is really a good deal and what isn't. thanks guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs a deal Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I would be willing to help in any way that you need :) I really would like to know what is and is not a good buy, the frenzy and time of the year seem to put buying blinders over peoples eyes so its hard to tell wether or not it is a good buy or just buying fever.

sweetdiggity Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I'm so looking forward to this!! I'd really like opinions on the ads also. This is going to be fun. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess7915 Posted October 26, 2010 Share Posted October 26, 2010 I think it's a great idea! I actually think that you should do two! I think that you should do a BF 101 live chat geared for BF newbies! It could serve as your test run for your main event as well for you to work your glitches out too. The live watchers could help you answer questions - you're the BF pro and the new people are always on the boards here looking for advice on How To Black Friday. As far as your "main event" I agree to the no Wednesday but I don't think you'd have as many people on if you did it Sat. or Sunday (we're busy shopping!) Contests are awesome too :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaymacfla Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I can do this the week of Black Friday. I can possibly do a live show with you on location (that is, if you are not camping yourself). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Lucy Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I think that sounds like a great idea. Depending on time, preferably after 5:00, I would love to watch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racerfan Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 Sounds like a great idea. I would be interested also. After 7/8 would work for me also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gator Pam Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I would love to attend and am available nearly anytime. However... When we upgraded to DSL from dial-up a couple of years ago, we went with the slowest version of DSL AT&T has, what they call "DSL Lite."I don't know the upload/download speeds offhand, but I do know I can't just stream things like youtube videos; I have to let them fully load before I can watch them smoothly.Will this affect my ability to watch the webcast and participate in the chat without frustration?
