The SM Advanced Forum is a monthly hangout with some of the most interesting people in and around the Streaming Media Industry.

Many years ago - before Social Media (!) there was an historic listserver community which was part of StreamingMedia.com.

That community were among the most active early adopters of Streaming technology, and today - over a decade later - many of that community are now thought leaders and business leaders in the online video space.

SMAdvancedForum aims to bring them back together in a monthly informal online video hangout to gossip about streaming, technology and all things geeky!..

You will be able to watch the stream, chat with those in the hangout, and if you have something to say then let us know and get on the guest list.

The anchor hosts are Eric Schumacher-Rasmussen, Dom Robinson, Mark East and Tim Siglin. It is unsponsored, and free - we are purely doing for fun and to stay in touch with professional friends olds and new.
