Open Mic Night

Open Mic Night was May 5th. There were 9 of us there, 6 of whom sort of had to be there. We found plenty to talk about and Leko said we should do it every couple of months on a regular basis. We talked about 1 to 1 iPads for kindergarteners, for profit higher ed institutions getting the shaft from government on funding, Leko's new 3D mouse, software, and other topics. Esteban told a cute story about how teaching in SL is prefered to teaching in RL because of the special abilities he has in SL. I think he called them Super Powers: checking profiles, tags over students' heads, etc. I'm not prepared to call it a success because not enough people were there. It didn't appeal to many as an idea for a meeting.
