Actually, is it okay if I'm in charge of the Zoom call? I would like to set up one with different rooms and cohostify people, so it's not everyone locked in together.
After having experienced both Gather.town and Topia, I find Topia to feel better than Gather. Even though it seems like a small thing, the grid based movement in Gather just feels too chunky, and the mobility in Topia feels a lot more natural than in Gather
This Sunday at 12pm (PDT), we will have another one of our weekly online meetups. This time we will simply hangout without much of an introduction. In the future we will be back with our curated talks, but my guess is having a more casual hangout meetup is actually something I would be more excited about this week.
If you're a curated author and interested in giving a 5-min talk at a future event, which will then be transcribed and edited, sign up here.
Gather.town
We will be meeting in gather.town. We will also have a backup Zoom room here, in case Gather Town breaks for anyone, which Charlie Steiner has conveniently volunteered to moderate (thank you!): https://illinois.zoom.us/j/94331893306?pwd=SitHMW93ZlJpd01oOHdjTUtYVWQydz09
