Hey, we could even move to something that was time-independent, so if you
couldn't make a night meeting, you could still participate during the day, and
if you were a nightcrawler you could join the meeting at 4:30 A.M.
If we used plain ASCII text, we could segment the conversations into
individual statements by each participant that other people could then respond
to at their convenience. We could use a "subject" tag so you could follow a
conversation by reading all the statements with the same subject in the order
they were originally typed.
Since it would be in plain ASCII, you could access the meeting from any
system, and wouldn't need broadband and good graphics like you would for
webcams.
Wouldn't that be cool? A virtual community, independent of time, space, and
hardware!
