Adoption and implementation of new cloud-based tools will irreversibly change the way research is performed and video is leading the charge. BenchFly is a web-based resource that provides researchers with a platform to film, archive, and share the content that makes all of us better scientists. Whether it's a formal technique, an insider tip, or a critical safety protocol, if you have a cell phone, you can capture it. Now labs can provide uniform training to their incoming students and postdocs, while making sure all of the knowledge they worked so hard to develop isn't lost as lab members graduate and move on. The essentials of using video in the lab along with a brief BenchFly tutorial will be presented.
