AgWired Live TV From Farm Progress Show

Chuck Zimmerman

Hello live from Day 2 of the Farm Progress Show in Boone, IA.

Well, we were going to broadcast the Tom Dorr press conference at 2pm but thanks to the worst internet access we’ve ever had at a Farm Progress Show (that I can remember anyway) access for AgWired Live TV died a little before the press conference. I taped it though and will post it as soon as I can get it edited.

BTW. The internet access here is being handled by a company called VenuWorks. I would definitely not recommend them. We’ve been having lots of problems since the show started with our access. One of our farm broadcasters just left to go back to her hotel because she can’t even upload audio files. The company hasn’t been very responsive. I’ve called 2x (trying to get some guy named Andy) in the last couple hours and left messages but am getting no answer. If I was New Holland, I wouldn’t be paying for this service.

Post Update: Andy did call me back. He says that since this is a new site we should understand that there are infrastructure challenges and they hope to learn from this show and make it better next time.
