@Davide: they aren't able to cut-and-paste from the screen, it's just a
video stream.

@Greg: The student's did know I was streaming. Although, I'm not sure how
big the delay from my laptop and the stream is.
I wanted some way to record my screen and voice because I figured when I
talked about forking, collaborating, and the early parts of branching and
the git-flow model a video reference would be useful in the future when
they actually end up using it.
Apparently someone was wondering if they could watch the screen on their
own laptop earlier.
I'm not sure why they asked for this, but I speculate that students in the
back could see the text bigger and would prevent less head movements.

I haven't watched the final videos myself, I'm really hoping the saved
video was smooth.  There was some random parts of the livestream that
didn't work.

There was also random people from the internet that joined and ended up
asking questions.  That was fun.
