On May 9th, a team of 8 people from six different countries, many of whom had not met in person, conducted a real time virtual conference.
In all it was a great success and we thank those that participated in the conference! The conference lasted three hours, and had a total of nine different sessions. A range of different tools were used; Skype Voice, Skype Chat, TinyChat, Twitter, DimDim, EtherPad etc). The sessions used various combinations of tools and this gave us some insight into the functionality of the tools, their stability, their effectiveness etc. We believe that are the global communications infrastructure evolves and web 2.0 tools become more ubiquitous, more and more real world processes will move into the online world and hence this virtual conference marks just the beginning of such sessions! In order to provide you with some feedback, we have developed a MindMap (using www.mindmeister.com) which you can access at: http://www.mindmeister.com/de/maps/show_public/20991099 Please feel free to distribute widely.
