Features of LTN’s Online Meeting Ground
The virtual auditorium of a PalTalk Chat Room offers opportunity for
- the real-time sharing of ideas, inspiration and collaborative planning between any number of people tuning in from anywhere on the planet
- dynamic, participatory interaction [While only one person can hold the mic at any time, all participants can listen, type and publish text, scroll up and down the record of everyone’s comments, respond to any comment - publicly or privately.]
- anyone (equipped with a mic) to speak
- anyone (with a web-cam) can be seen by the group
- the sharing and/or simultaneous viewing of websites, web-published video-clips, etc
In short, you are invited to enter a virtual auditorium - with the ability to type in text, scroll everyone’s comments, talk via microphone, see each other, share links and files, simultaneously view websites or published video clips, collaborate, develop strategies and friendships and…
Stay in Touch
While, quite naturally, people prefer to get together ‘in physical presence’, this type of virtual auditorium allows us to meet regularly and with great interactive capacity - with minimal travel time, expense or carbon emissions.
Summary
LTN’s Online Meeting Ground is for any individual or group contributing in any way towards the sustainability, basic self reliance, self-determination and holistic well-being of our selves, our families, communities, region and world.
Meeting online in an interactive, virtual auditorium can further the cohesion of the “Earth Community movement for a Positive Future”. Especially as we joyously ’slippery dip’ down the other side of Mt Peak Oil, we may experience an interim reliance upon ‘gathering virtually’ to meet the needs for regional, inter-regional and global cohesion.

Then select ‘Living Together Network’. Click to ENTER. [Note: The Room only appears in the list when it has been opened by an Admin.]
To Speak at meetings held in the Online Meeting Ground
Be set up with an internal or external microphone. Then signal (by the ‘hand’ icon) and then when it’s your turn, hold down the ‘Press to Talk‘ icon.
MAC users:
Most PalTalk participants are on PCs. At least one Mac user has successfully uploaded PalTalk and participated in an LTN meeting… so it IS possible… Newer MACs have a dual operating system. In order to use PalTalk, you must be using Windows XP Operating System. Those on older MACs will apparently need extra software… hmmm.
