Livestream Q and A
Main Post:
Hey all,
I've been doing some live streaming work and an interesting question has come up: Is there a platform/streaming service that will allow a moderated QA session between remote presenters and web participants? For example, using vmix call, we have a group of panelists streaming to a service like vimeo, participants can watch the stream and ask questions, but only the panelists/moderator is able to see the questions. Does this exist somewhere?
Top Comment:
Integrate zoom webinar into it and you can promote guests to panelists to talk and then demote them. Or just do zoom meetings but it’s a little less polished.
Massive list of date questions and conversation starters
Main Post:
I put this list of date -related questions together whilst bored in isolation - based on stuff I'd read, questions I've been asked, questions I've asked, topics I like to discuss etc
It's NOT to be used like a series of interview questions - they're prompts that you can work with at different stages of an interaction with someone if things aren't flowing too well naturally. Turn them into a conversation not a series of questions and answers though. I broke them down into rough sections that I feel have a certain overall vibe.
I've decided to share it now for 2 reasons - firstly to provide some inspiration for others, secondly because I'm curious what you guys think - is there anything you would definitely remove or avoid, any cool questions you like to ask?
__________________________________________________________

head?

people watching game: picking random people around you and creating a funny backstory for them or making silly assumptions about them (Try to make sure they can't hear you)
Deep dive
(Can really help make the conversation more memorable and less mundane but don't overdo it and turn it into a therapy session)
⁃ If you had unlimited wealth how would you spend your time?

What type of sleeper are you - would I need to wear a helmet because you thrash around? or lay still like a vampire? or steal the sheets and lets the other person freeze to death?

⁃ Do you normally make much mess so to speak?
⁃ Do you have any fantasies or fetishes that you’d like to try someday? Roleplaying?
Silence
(Don't be too desperate to avoid it, sexual chemistry is built in silence not speaking)
So tell me something else I don't know about you
Give me something else from your bucket list
Something from your surroundings
Pick literally any other question or their last response

Offer info about yourself.
Otherwise it becomes an interview.
Live Chat and Polls
Main Post:
I am working on an event that is going to be streamed. The stream itself is hosted by an embedded Twitch, next to an embed broadcast PowerPoint on the client's own webserver/domain. Now I also would like to add a chat function for the viewers. Also, I would like to add a poll function, that shows a poll when I activate it (multiple during the event). I know that chat and poll is a build-in function in Twitch or Facebook, but we don't want the viewers to have to log in to these services since they probably don't even have an account for it. Does anyone know a good chat/poll solution that can be embedded via iFrame?
Top Comment: I've used Slido at large corporate events for polling and Q&A. I'm not familiar with iframe, so I don't know how it would integrate. https://www.sli.do/
Tiktok live questions
Main Post:
Is there a way for my live comments to be read outloud? Whenever im on stream i use a chest mount for fishing and i can never see the comments. So a outloud/text to voice option would be very beneficial. Anybody know how to do that?
Top Comment:
That’s a good question and would be beneficial for accessibility in general. There are some screen reader options on iPhone that I know of (VoiceOver) but I don’t know if it would read live chat.
Live conversation no screener
Main Post:
Did anyone else see a live interview today that only had a single question on the screener and that was to accept or decline the interview? I scheduled with it and afterwards another live interview for the following week also with a one question screener came up.

Could be from precious live test you done and they want to talk to you again or if you filled out those surveys that are at the top looking for ppl
