Lucas – your comments as always are provocative. But maybe a bit too literal?
My thought is – replicating OS (as experienced by human beings in a physical room) is a worthwhile undertaking. The deeper task, I would think, is to open some new space that is available only online. Just as the “normal” (space/time) OST tends to blow people away – what is the cyber-equivalent?
I don’t have a clue of an answer. But I do remember “way back when” – sitting at my kitchen table with a TI Silent 700 plugged into a phone through acoustical couplings. Suddenly “it” came alive and electronic beings from all over the planet for the most part (actually I am not really sure where they came from) populated my table, life, reality…. Space hadn’t opened. Space/time was transformed.
What can you do for me baby? I guess that is the question.

Hi All,
I would be super-excited to hear how folks would design the simplest online Open Space experience using video chat.
I posted my thoughts below, but I put them further down so that you might have a moment to think about what online OS experience would work best for you, rather than letting my thoughts influence yours.

Here are my rough thoughts:
1. When the event begins you open up a webpage. You can see the following:
* where the opening circle is
* how many virtual breakout spaces there are
* who is in each virtual space right now
* what is being discussed now and in the future (a bulletin board / marketplace / idea wall)
2. Next you choose to enter a space by turning on your video chat.
Note: The following features seem helpful but not necessary:
3. When you arrive in a space, you see a shared notes area available to all participants.
4. There is a way to raise your hand to indicate that you'd like to speak.
5. There is a way to share a quick message such as ("I have to step away for a moment").
Thanks so much for any advice. I look forward to hearing what you have in mind!
