a day ago@HigherEdAV @ped1971 Great article - I would love to ha e everyone across all verticals get better about AV terminology. So often end users are just completely programmed with bad info from the marketing in this industry and the repetition of false info by sales reps who parrot the message #AVintheAM

2 days agoI threw out the line: '#AV needs to do a better job of education and not throwing terms around for advertising shock value.' in a #HigherEd @SlackHQ channel out of frustration that @ped1971 turned into an article in less than 12 hours. I don't know how he does it. Good read. twitter.com/ped1971/status…

2 days ago#HigherEd AV has gotten #sloppy lately, and it has gotten to the major #annoyance level for me. What are we sloppy with? #Terminology. There seems to be this mad rush to throw around #buzzwords without paying attention to what they really mean. #AVTweeps higheredav.com/terminology-ma…

2 days ago@ped1971 @HigherEdAV Agreed, can we call out anyone talking about Cat7 (which does not exist)? should we not call AV on the LAN, AVoIP? Stop calling any AV codec “lossless”? Stress that frames exist in Layer 2 and packets in Layer 3? These are some of my favorite ones!

3 days agoIf you believe in God, how do you view God's heart toward humanity? This is really at the core of the issues surrounding free will. Who is God and how does God purpose to interact with humanity? The God I know is a loving God who welcomes all into relationship.

2 weeks ago@chris_neto I agree with the consensus: consistency, ease of use, and clarity are paramount. Having said that, clear and easy-to-use do not have to be ugly - put a little pride and effort into the aesthetics of your GUI design. Your client with appreciate it! #AVinTheAM #AVTweeps
