When have you try to do this?  And more importantly, When have you been 
successful at it?

First, a webcam would not work to record a large room.  They are design 
for viewing just one person a only a few feet away.   Trying to use such 
a device to record a room full of people just does not work.  You would 
not be able to make out what's happening.

And forget the audio!  With all the people talk at once, there is no way 
you can follow what anyone is saying.


As for the WiFi, you don't have the bandwidth to getting good video out 
of the hotel.

If you want the CoCofest experience, try going to the CoCofest.  I've 
flying over 2,000 miles to get there.

What about you?
