Here are some of the many video features that this software has to offer. http://www.dartfish.com/en/media-gallery/videos/index.htm
These features really help you to breakdown the film in various ways that will assist the user in pinpointing the area that needs correction. The StroMotion, the SimulCam, and the Drawing allows you to study the technique of a performance and compare it to a similar performance. The analysis and the split screen, allow the user to see the peformance from many different angles, so that he/she can develop a better perception of everything that is occuring during the play.
These tools help our coaching staff greatly in focusing our players' attention on some small, yet important details.

Video Software Solutions
I have began researching and testing a new video analysis software with our Men's Soccer program. The program that I am trying to learn more about is called Darfish http://www.dartfish.com. This product seems to offer a wide range of features that will assist myself and the rest of the coaching staff to analyze our previous performances as well as those of our upcoming opponents.
As I learn more about this product and become more comfortable in using some of the features, I will elaborate more on how it is beneficial to educating my athletes. If anyone out there is familiar with this program, please feel free to comment or give suggestions. I am very interested in implementing this new technology into my coaching toolbox. Hopefully it will enhance the players' learning experience.

Free $oftware?
The term "free software" can refer to either the price of a software or the fact the the software is developed in open source and allows users to freely access it's data source and develop within their applications. Joomla! is a free, award-winning, content management system written in PHP which is allows users to easily publish their content on the world wide web and intranets. It is created as an open-source project where individuals and teams contribute their skills to its development as well as its supporting systems.
Joomla! was picked as the software's name as the phonetic spelling of the Swahili word "Jumla" which means "all together" or as a whole." A software with this type of name speaks to its sense of community and open collaboration. The key to Joomla! is the fact that it is a very easy application to use, while still offering many features and allowing for robust developments.

Open Source Offers Options
Have you ever been using an application that is installed on your computer and become unbelievably frustrated with it? Open source technology allows users to find an alternative application. Many of these are free and, if you do a little research, you can easily find one that fits your needs and won't cost you a thing but a little bit of your time.
Here is a link to a blog that introduces many open source applications that can be used in place of the typical Microsoft or Apple software.

Open vs Closed
Here is a short and easy read about the difference between Open and Closed source technology. It gives a few basic characteristics of both and then discusses what purpose each one serves. http://www.extropia.com/aboutus/opensourcetech.html
To me, it seems as if open source is more of a community of programers learning from one another and attempting to develop quality software.
