PAX east is in Boston I think.
Yep, and PAX West is in Washington.
So Brion should really do a convention in Seattle. ;D  I got my mom into Flipside now.

I totally agree. Nothing to even be sorry about, there's just a huge divide between net friends and my friends that I've met and interacted with in the analog.

Mostly why I think it'd be neat to meet up at...say a con where everyone kind of wanted to go outside of flipside forumiteness anyway :P

And hey, if I finally fix the pulseaudio(blech) issues, you could even see my awesome face through skype. :P

Now, we just need to get brion to install skype for once and harass him into taking part.

Looks like you wouldn't need to fix pulseaudio, some freeware thing I assume, then Akasha.

That would be fairly cool, now we just need to force Brion... Who lives closest to him again?

Just want you all to remember this: In here there are no strangers just freinds who have met yet  8)
What good is dreaming it if you don't actually do it?.

So what is the consensus?
What would be the eaisiest place for the most people to get to, (with special consideration for those of us who can only travel so far)?

There isn't one because almost everybody has a area restriction, Although if it seems it should make sense that it would be in IL just because that's where Brion is.\


Edit: also looked up skype, the video conferencing is only one on one.

Everyone open a separate conference for each person!

I smell Epic!

I have an idea though:

Why don't we set up some sort of text-based messaging system, hosted on a web server somewhere, where people can type in whatever they want to say, that way it will sort of be like having a conversation, but people can say things whenever they want.  All the...well we could call each individual text message a "post".  These "posts" would then be ordered in a sequential fashion in order of when they were "posted" and would therefore be readable as a collective conversation between many people at once?

This would also solve the bandwith problems of trying to have a massive online group meeting!

I'm sorry, it's not funny at all, I know.

I wonder what the limit to the number of conferences you can have up at once, I'm screwing around on Skype right now and haven't seen any kind of number.
