I wonder what you would think if we scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting?
I was thinking about what it might be like if our discussion group scheduled a monthly Zoom Meeting? This would allow everyone to finally put a face to a name and it might really allow everyone to be more interactive. This might also allow our discussion group to take things to the next level. We might also want to develop some rules of engagement.
I would like to hear your responses. We can then weigh in to see if this might be something we might do.

dekay, I didn't...and that's more than I needed to absorb into an image that I might observe anyway.... ;) I use a Post-It, myself...color changes with mood. One could post an avatar instead of a cam image. One that could echo the tenor of the discussion on the virtual table....in constant 'morph-mode', constantly convulsing from one face to another.... One might want Scotch, f'sure.....neat, sweet. and refilled repeats.

I live in the UK and have been looking for audio clubs to join where I can either meet up or take part in online meetings just to talk about hifi. I couldn’t find any, perhaps I don’t know where to look, but it’s what led me to join this site. I would happily join any discussion group, even if it’s just to listen to others experience with different media. For example I am a strictly digital guy, but I’m fascinated by everything hifi so enjoy hearing about any setup as one day I could venture into vinyl when I’ve completed my current setup. I agree timezones would be something to overcome, but if it worked there could be groups based on location and also on subject to help focus the people choosing to attend. If one got setup and I can make it then I’m game, additionally if anyone in the UK knows of any other groups let me know! |
@nonoise , Told ya! |
It would be interesting, or not. I'd be up for it. It may be a cluster you know what. I imagine people would be kinder. Zoom meeting are great. I do a couple a week. They make the impossible possible. Good things could happen. There would be off shoots of different interests. Wow, now I'm thinking about it! |
So far, I like the responses I am receiving. I personally think it would be fun to talk to each other rather than communicate online. This could take things to the next level. I also think it could allow for a lot of friendships to be formed. It would be nice to finally see what we look like. Can you imagine the kind of conversations we could have and the level of sharing we could have? Perhaps, we could decide on what topics we want to cover or perhaps have someone teach a class? . |
How many people would be on this zoom call Larry? If you've been on multi person zoom calls before for business you should know what a mess they are. Too many people trying to talk, others get bored and start looking at their phones. How could this possibly work. By all means, set it up. I'm anxious to hear about the result. I can't imagine it being a good thing. |
Roxy, This will depend on whether Tammy allows us to give this a try. I have no idea at this point. I have a feeling there might not be more than 20. We will also need to publish Rules of Engagement and have members sign off on them. Just think how much fun it would be to finally see who we all are and to talk to each other. I will make certain ground rules will be laid out at the beginning of each meeting. My hope is for us to have members perhaps have seminars or at least have a member give talks on certain topics and then open things up for discussion.
Warmest regards,
Larry Edwards |
