Chris, thanks for the set-up info. I'm looking to the 1pm conversation today. NOTE TO OTHER ATTENDEES: The setup is easy, and fairly quick, on both computer and headset, but there is some of the standard app download/install, account creation hassles. If your schedule permits, try to get setup with Nanome ...

Steve, One of the challenges with student (or any new learner) projects is that they can be a bit of a jumble code-wise. Which makes troubleshooting, even for an experienced developer, a significant challenge. The official learn.unity.com training resources are generally top-notch, and use a fairly ...

Chris, Thank you for the offer to share your experiences, and welcome to the group. I look forward to meeting up at the Educause Conference. I've heard good things about Nanome but haven't had a chance to try it out. It would be wonderful to have you walk the group through the platform. The capacity ...

John, good to know. Colleen and I are completely open to alternate days/times for future meetings. We'll never find a perfect time for a group this big, but everyone - feel free to weigh in with preferred days/time (recognizing we span at least all US time zones, with European and AU there too.) ...

Hey folks, a quick reminder that we'd like to get our community monthly meeting series back on our schedules. Two quick asks: Please reply here if you can make a meeting next week, Thursday, September 21 at Noon. It will help to have a rough head count of who expects to attend. Even better, if you'd ...

Claudia, You do not need to have a one-to-one relationship between Meta headsets and mobile devices. At this point I easily have 15 - 20 that I've initiated with my own mobile and they work fine. It is generally recommended that you have individual Meta accounts for each headset, but even that is not ...

Interesting. Their Sharecare Reality Lab website lists Yale as a customer, although I'm not aware of any departments using the application. I will ask around to see if I can track down where that might have been. I'll also send them a takedown notice, as our standard policy doesn't allow that type of ...

Do you have friends who say something like "hey you work at a college -- do you work in the summer?" For most of us summer can be even busier than term time, right?
