Using FloPrompter with VBScript

Wednesday, October 17th, 2007

A school in Texas uses VBScript to help automate some of the steps for their student-run news cast. They wrote me asking if I could help figure out how to activate a FloPrompter window using VBScript. I was certainly glad to help even though I’d barely even heard of VBScript before and had never worked […]

FloSpace FloPrompter 2.3.1 Released!

Saturday, October 13th, 2007

Yes, folks, it’s barely been a week, and already we’ve released a new version! A customer contacted us to request a continuous loop feature in the teleprompter, which I wrote about a few days ago. It’s a great idea and I think that a lot of other customers could benefit from it, as well. Continuous […]

FloPrompter Helps Elementary School Announce the News

Friday, October 12th, 2007

A media specialist at an elementary school in Michigan called me to today to make arrangements for a purchase order for FloPrompter. We got to talking and she told me how the students at her school are using FloPrompter. Every morning, a couple of students make the announcements over the school’s PA system. They also […]

FloPrompter Helps Courthouse Stay on Schedule

Thursday, October 11th, 2007

Mr. D., an IT director for a district courthouse in a Southwestern state, sent me an email today to request a new feature for FloPrompter: continuous loop in the teleprompter player window. I couldn’t image what a courthouse would use FloPrompter for, let alone why they’d want a continuous loop feature, so I gave the […]

Someone wrote to me the other day asking whether FloSpace FloPrompter is available with a special discount for academic institutions. The answer is most definitely yes! The academic pricing is 50% off for a single license. An even deeper discount is available for volume purchases. School media specialists, teachers, principals, and students are all eligible […]

FloSpace FloPrompter 2.3 Released!

Monday, October 8th, 2007

We’re pleased to announce the release of FloPrompter 2.3! FloPrompter version 2.3 has so many new features, we probably could have called it “3.0” — but we decided to just increment the number instead. This also means that it’s a free update for all current FloPrompter customers! The development emphasis for this release was on […]

Hollywood learns to love FloPrompter!

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

Well, okay, that may be a bit of an overstatement. It’d be nice though! What’s cool is that another small Hollywood area studio purchased FloPrompter this week. To date that brings us up to about a half dozen small studios. I won’t say which one made the purchase this week, but judging from their web […]

Wireless Presenters

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

FloPrompter customers often ask me which wireless presenters work with FloPrompter. The short answer is that as long as the device notes that it will work with Microsoft PowerPoint, it ought to work just fine with FloPrompter, too. Last week, I listed FloPrompter on Amazon.com for the very first time, so I thought I would […]

Books on Presentation Skills and Public Speaking

Sunday, September 9th, 2007

Last week, I listed FloPrompter on Amazon.com for the very first time, so I thought it would be cool to see what kinds of books they sell on presentation skills and public speaking. I found a few that look promising based on the title and description. Of course, whether they’re actually interesting or useful is […]
