Revision as of 16:10, 23 February 2010

Alternate social: Sunday February 21st

Celebrate the Chinese New Year by going out for Chinese with your fellow K-LUGgers. The Chinese New Year is actually on Valentine's Day this year, which I figured was asking for trouble for trying to get enough seats in a restaurant, so we'll go a week late. 6 pm, Hunan at 844 South Broadway near Kmart. RSVP's are due to Tina by lunchtime on Wednesday February 17th so reservations can be made.

Lunch: Thursday February 18th

11:30 am, at the Apache Mall food court near B&N.

Technical Meeting: Thursday February 11th

Chris Abbey on digital photo processing. Those of you who went on the October social photowalks, send your pictures to Chris in advance or bring them to the meeting. Culling is the first step, so don't feel like you need to reduce in advance the pictures you took.

Also, PCIG nominations.

SameTime 3D allows users to collaborate via voice, textchat, avatars and various meeting specific tools. Upload a presentation and invite others to join you in a virtual 3D meeting space.

Why use 3D for Meetings?

Meetings are about people getting together to do things - with 3D meetings you see all the others as avatars throughout the meeting.

Social interactions are more natural with avatars. The expressiveness of avatars help co-workers communicate in a natural and personal way that helps them get to know each other - leading to more trust and better collaboration.

Work in 3D. Organize in 3D, build in 3D, present and interact in 3D

We'll also go over topics for future meetings...Need some ideas? Here are topics your fellow K-LUGgers have requested.

Also, elections are coming up please consider volunteering.
