KMUG Meeting - March 28
Frente, Nishinomiya (see below)

Many KMUGers will remember Ian Shortreed from his prior dynamic presentations or perhaps through his other computer work - or even perhaps from parties (Ian fits right into KMUG, being a partier par excellence!).

Therefore, your execs are very happy to let you know that Ian will show off Mercury Software's new cloud-based, educational, virtual-world software which runs on Mac OS X (Intel only), iPad, iPhone, Windows (all flavors), and, last but not least, Ubuntu (Debian) Linux.

Originally designed by Alan Kay, one of Apple's seminal thinkers and an x Apple Fellow, the software allows for real-time communication using voice combined with real time video input and MPEG video playback plus full Open Office integration inside the virtual world.

The software is ideal for distance learning, language teaching or even a virtual KMUG special interest group meeting. Ian says: "Be there or be square!"
