[AtlanticCanada] Virtual meeting for OSGeo Atlantic Canada Chapter?

[Sam Vekemans]

Hi,
Google+ ''hangouts'' Might be an option to try out.

(think, 1970s TV show 'The Brady Bunch' with the 9 boxes all seeing eachother)

I havent tried it myself, but from what i hear, it does work well. As
long as everyone has a strong connection.

I'm going to be testing it out in the next few weeks, it makes it easy
to connect with people on it.


cheers,
Sam
