I need a local person to help me with Squeak Smalltalk. I like in the Western suburbs of Chicago, in Downers Grove. I want someone to show me all the things I am missing and to help me use the tools more effectively.
I am thinking we could meet at a coffee shop once a week for an hour. I would pay for each lesson, $70. Sincerely, Joe Alotta joseph.alotta@gmail.com |

Thanks Stephan and Craig,
I will keep it in mind. I haven’t given up on a local tutor yet. Sincerely.

Hi Joe and Craig, Not sure if it will help but I’ll donate a Terf space for you to use for lessons. You can drink virtual coffee while learning Squeak in Squeak!

Hi Joe, Terf is a virtual world used for collaboration. We provide VOIP, webcams, video, document sharing (doc, xls, ppt, pdf, txt), web browsing, sticky notes, 3d objects and more. It’s like being in the same room together. You can even sit at a table with virtual coffee!

Ron:
Have you thought about a virtual equivalent to meetup.com? Is there something available already? All the best, Aik-Siong Koh |
It would be very hard to compete with meetup. They have a moat because they were first. I run a meetup group and I have 1000 members, just because they are on meetup and not somewhere else.
Same thing for eBay. Everyone hates it. But it is where the buyers and the sellers are.

Odd that I never got Aik-Siong Koh email! Checked junk mail also but nothing. Did everyone else get it or am I missing something? Ahh maybe the email didn’t go to [hidden email]? I have been thinking about something along those lines, something where users could purchase a single license and then connect to various organizations, events and activities. This is the opposite of having an organizer pay. Either way it does seem like a good idea! Thanks for suggesting it.

In MeetUp, I go to a real place to meet real people. Great for popular activities.
But I would like to meet Smalltalkers once a month or a week for realtime conversations. There are too few or no one nearby who are interested. A virtual meeting place would be a great substitute. Is there such a website or app? Perhaps, in the future we can combine physical with virtual meetings simultaneously. A remote user can see the real meeting room and identify the person he wants to talk to. He then calls that person to start a conversation. Does such a capability exist? All the best, Aik-Siong Koh |

Does such a capability exist? > [Ron Teitelbaum] Right now I think your options are Facebook or google hangouts. There is also second life which used to have a lot of areas dedicated for different activities like science and academia but it turned into a ghost town for most of the useful areas. I like the idea but need to really think it through. The real problem with 3d as I see it is that there is a certain amount of investment required of users to learn and understand the platform. The activity needs to pay back that investment with something useful. We do well in education, training, counseling, and collaboration. Places where the software provides sufficient benefits to the users to pay back that investment. MeetUp is a calendaring and coordination application. It has a very low cost to users to use and understand and a minimal cost to organizers, and a benefit that organizers can charge more than the cost to members that participate. I'm not sure that the same is true of a virtual world. We tried having google hangouts for Squeak people! That was fun, but difficult to coordinate. It also quickly dropped off in attendance after the first few meetings. If someone would like to use Terf for Squeak meetings, and we can organize something that would be useful to pay back participants, I would be very interested. Please feel free to contact me. [hidden email]. What I would suggest is an agenda, speakers, training, sprints, documentation days, programming contests, something like that.
