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?  [http://www.k-lug.org/index.php?title=Meetings&action=submit#Requested_topics_list Here are topics] your fellow K-LUGgers have requested.
Also, '''elections''' are coming up please consider volunteering.
