How to participate in the "Team System Users Group - Virtual Edition"

Published 17 September 08 08:47 AM | dmckinstry

After asking fellow MVPs to help us drive visibility to the new Team System User Group (Virtual Edition), we ran across some hosting issues.  Last night we had a router issue and this morning we've had a cable cut.  The provider has an 8-hour response time so hopefully we'll be back soon.  But in the mean time, http://www.tsug-ve.com is down!  Please be patient and check-back.  We hope to see many of you at our inaugural meeting tomorrow!

The TSUG website has instructions and I will generally send our an invite before the meeting.  In case you're not able to sign-up at the site before then, here is what you need to do to participate:

  1. Make sure you have SecondLife and LiveMeeting installed and configured.
  2. The meeting is Thursday, Sept 18th [Update: the third Thursday of each month] at 6PM 5PM (Pacific time = GMT-08:00).   [Update: There is an additional meeting on the third Saturday of each month at 9AM Pacific time, catering to European and Middle-Eastern time zones.]
  3. Sign into both LiveMeeting and SecondLife a little early - we will try to start on time and you may want to socialize with fellow VSTS enthusiasts.  If you haven't played with SecondLife, plan to spend a few minutes going through the tutorial before you get started.
  4. Be prepared to switch back-and-forth (Alt-Tab) between SL and LM.  We will do demos in LiveMeeting and many slides and interaction in SecondLife.

We hope to "see" you there!

Very cool idea...too bad it's on Thursday!  I just can't do Thursdays, which means I miss out on user groups altogether...all (and I mean ALL) the user groups in my area meet on Thursdays.  :(

Eric (And anyone else who is interested)...

TSUG-VE.COM is back online.  Even if you can't make the meetings today, please sign-up and provide feedback.  I'm not adverse to changing days or times if there is sufficient interest.  

At this point, the official feedback channel is via info@tsug-ve.com.  Let me know what days and times do work.  Thanks!

Sorry I’ve been so lax in posting for awhile.  I have a few nice posts drafted but never managed
