To enhance communication and reduce the cost of in-person meetings among LTER site data/ information managers, Rudolf Nottrott has compiled information on video conferencing over the Internet, using PCs or Macs, plus low-cost, "pocket" hardware and software. He has made this available on ILTERnet.edu, the international LTER (ILTER) network server. This new means of communication will be especially useful for activities that require frequent meetings, virtual or real, involving many different groups and individuals.
The information may be accessed via the Network web site at http://im.lternet.edu/, in the Quickfinder, under Technology, or interested users may find it directly at http://lternet.edu/im/tech/pcvideo.htm.
