We will be testing the HarQen Symposia product in this session, with Marc della Torre. Symposia is a hard thing to describe in a few words, you really need to see it to understand what it might bring to a conference. This is exactly what we hope to see happen for this conference.
Recording with bookmarks
Key moments can be marked by participants (see the timeline of the recording below).
Views of finished Symposia recordings are available and can be shared via email links. The capture on the left shows a Participants list, a Search facility, Flags such as “concern”, “to-do”, etc, Topics and Mentions in the left hand column of that screen. On the right hand side, Shared Moments, Starred mMoments, and Images Shared are visible.
There are some great concepts here for a focused business conference that make HarQen’s quote understandable: “Ever sat through an hour-long webinar or meeting and afterward wished you could share the two minutes that mattered with someone else?” I believe you’ll have to see this to understand it, so we’ll try to coordinate all of our our usual channels, ZipDX, IRC with this moment and make sure everyone who wishes can participate.

We did a VUC Google Plus Hangout during the call as we will often be doing. These usually begin an hour or so before the actual conference. Please make sure you have the VUC G+ Page circled! During the hangout we looked at the Invoxia Desk Phone for iOS devices and the Polycom VVX-500 touch screen SIP phone.

Friday, January 6th we will once again be joined by Steve Song of The Village Telco. Steve last appeared in November 2009 to tell us about The Village Telco and their innovative, open source hardware called the Mesh Potato. Since that time Mesh Potatoes have started shipping and the project has made considerable progress.
In addition, Steve recently appeared at an African conference presenting on the importance of RF “white spaces” to the future of telecom in Africa. The white spaces debate there is very similar to similar issues faced in North America.
The initial question must be , “why does this matter?” Will the entrenched powers lock everyone else out of the RF landscape through the regulatory system? Or will a more open approach prevail?
