Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout
Thanks Alex, Since you took the time to provide details for a preferred chat solution I will look into it tonight. Before you pointed it out, it didn't cross my mind to use the IRC channel, I had forgotten we had one. It was not out of malice. I will see you at the hang out!

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout
Hello Alex, I don't know how to use IRC as I've used it twice in my life and I had to download client software. I'd rather just give people a link and they know how to join on their own. If there was an easy IRC web client that could be sent to people as a simple link I would consider it for future meetings.

Re: [AOO 4.0 Branding Refresh] Call For Google Hangout
I've posted the event to facebook so it makes it into people's news feeds tonight. Hoping to get the public chiming in the chat room during the live video and during comments and Q&A. Rob can you grant me access to the AOO page on google+ so I can post there as well? Its kind of good to post to post the day before because it will show up in news feeds on the social platforms. Preferably a week before and a day before and even during. On Fri, Mar 22, 2013 at 11:50 AM, Samer Mansour wrote: > Here is the agenda.
