International Embryo Physics Course: Movies & low bandwidth participants?

[Richard Gordon]

Thursday, June 10, 2010 4:52 AM from Winnipeg
I came across:

http://web.media.mit.edu/~lifton/snippets/n800_to_sl/

and would appreciate it if you could come up with a solution for us to
show QuickTime movies in the International Embryo Physics Course.

We have a couple of people who can’t participate because their
Internet access is too low speed. Is there any way that they could
enter Second Life® without the visuals and just do typed and spoken
chat? We could send them PowerPoint presentations in advance.

Please advise. Thanks.
Yours, -Dick Gordon

Dear Jesse,
Evgenii Rudnyi has suggested that http://textsl.org/ might work for
low speed Internet access to our Second Life® (http://secondlife.com)
course. Since you’re stuck with the latter right now, how about giving
it a try? If it works, we’ll be able to bring Lev Beloussov and others
in who have been unable to attend. Thanks.
Yours, -Dick
