I just finished watching Emma withaveleh! :-D Much much much squeee. We split it across several viewing sessions, constrained by time on both sides and slow internet on my side. She had to basically give me a cliffs notes version of who was in which scene and why stuff was important, because I had a really difficult time telling John Knightley, Frank Churchill, and um, Mr.Knightley Knightley*, apart (among others). But but sooooooo much love for when... oh um is it a spoiler to say? Well, um. ANYWAY.
It was fun ^_^
* I cannot remember his first name for the life of me

Basically, in prayer books, so that the minister knows when to say whose names in a wedding, those spots are marked with N. and M. It's not shorthand for those two in particular :)

(It would be pretty easy to write an app if one had the exact same file to sync though without using a site)

Date: 2009-12-13 05:37 pm (UTC)I actually wonder how hard it would be to write a cross-platform app that would act like an IRC client or something and do all that pinging automatically, and move the video around and stuffses to keep everyone at the same time

Date: 2009-12-13 05:39 pm (UTC)There's also the issue of mismatch of internet speeds to think about! As happened to us, one person could have everything loaded, and the other person could have only half loaded, and you'd need to be pausing and stuff through it...
