Group Chat as a Valuable Resource: Dec. 10 Metanomics Community Forum
Metanomics : Dec 10, 2009 10:59am
NMC Campus Observer Note… You can watch this Metanomics show live at Outreach (87, 125, 34) on NMC Campus
While discussions in the Architecture Working Group channel are frequently informative, this discussion of personal experiences with the other viewers for Second Life and alternative grids struck several participants as important and useful.
A Google Spreadsheet was created and the URL shared, and within minutes there were a dozen people looking at it with respective cursors leaping about the page and labels appearing and disappearing like popcorn kernels in a hot pan.
A protocol emerged for typists to call out a task and things settled quickly into something more productive. “This is like watching grass grow,†came the plaintive lament. “No,†replied another in text, “more like watching paint ignite.†So the MCF Alternative Viewer document was born, and thanks to the dedication of a few, and contributions from many, it will be displayed today at the Metanomics Studio for an improvised poster session.
Come take a look, and join what will likely be an interesting session about the directions and features each has chosen to pursue.
So please join us for the metanomics community forum, December 10 2009 at 12 p.m. SLT at the metanomics main stage.
