Thanks for posting this. It is remiss of me because I pointed this out on Landscape juice on Friday and I should have added it here too.

I have to say (and I am trying to be constructive) that this forum need not have been live. It did not really give the feeling as being 'instant' but I liked the fact that it was fresh as in 'happening now'.
Maybe (and I will convey this to Nicola) it better to have cut and pasted the questions and the answers into a live IM Skype chat one at a time and then allowed five minutes for the question and answer to been digested.
This would have given the team time for preparation (because it is not always easy to answer questions in a quick fire format) but also time for those in attendance to ask smaller related questions to the topic before moving onto the next question.
A good start anyway and I like the fact that Jason Lock and his team were prepared to contribute some of their experience and knowledge.
Did you attend - what did you think?
