I'll probably suggest they consider SecondLife - based on completeness
of that offering.

= Here is my lightning talk submission:
" Title: Erlang global monthly meetings via voice.
Abstract: Erlang community members could become more personally
productive, produce more Erlang community software, & enjoy each other's
company [& a beverage of one's choice ;) ] at a global Erlang monthly
virtual (via voice) meeting. Would the Erlang community desire this?
What virtual meeting features are most important to the Erlang
community? What technologies, platforms & service providers are
available to enable this? What global voice meeting technologies have
been tried in the Erlang community? Which would be the best fit to take
the next steps of holding such meetings? Come learn the possibilities,
input your wants, needs & abilities, & help organize to implement this
exciting new technology for the Erlang community.
Giovanni Re founded the All Free Software, Hardware & Culture global
virtual meetings -BerkeleyTIP-Global - in 2008 (in his non-existent
"free" time). Purposes: Educational, Productive & Social, for both
university students and the global communities. A main goal: Enable
university students to move more quickly from being nonusers, to users,
to contributors to these communities. [TIP = the 3 parts of the
meetings: Talks, Installfest & Project/Programming Party.] Global voice
meetings enable rapid communication for globally dispersed communities,
increasing individuals learning, enjoyment, & both personal & community
productivity. Come learn what worked, didn't, & why, at BTIP-Global.
Learn what improvements are being planned & implemented. Understand how
to apply this knowledge to improve the Erlang community. :)
Biography: Giovanni Re is an Electrical Engineer. He is investigating
the suitability of Erlang for an upcoming project."

I'm thinking when I get the time,
we BTIP should get on 2ndLife.
That will be a big step forward. :)
Anyone here using 2nd life, or have an account?
I put
Mobile Grid Client is a Second Life messaging client for Android powered
devices
on my tablet today.
I went by Linden labs after 5P, and a new prod dev mgr thanked me for
my interest, but said they don't support tablets -
Not even iPad. !
