A couple of clarifications. This is just a trial run to see if the software
works; a prepared talk isn't necessary or expected. The time is also 2pm EST.
Room for a few more volunteers...

All,
I'm looking for some volunteers to make a trial run at virtual lightning
talks. This is an idea that came to me during Code4Lib earlier this month --
use a webinar tool to replicate the environment of the conference lightning
talks. The outline of the concept is at:
http://wiki.code4lib.org/index.php/Virtual_Lightning_Talks
LYRASIS has a subscription to a 100-seat instance of Centra Saba that we can
try. It is Java-based with claimed support for sharing desktops under Mac,
Linux and Windows. I'd like to test that support to see if it can be used.
So I'm looking for a half dozen volunteers to sign into a test room on
Wednesday at 2pm.
Please let me know if you can help. Read the presenter guidelines at the URL
above to make sure you have the minimum requirements and for links to install
the webinar client software. The URL to the trial run space is
http://tinyurl.com/5vzd8st and it will be active on Wednesday at 2pm.
Thanks,
Peter
