My communication problems continue.
The phone line and broadband at home still not working, talktalk do not answer their phone, but have acknowledged our logging of the problem on their website - which says they will respond in 2 days.
So last night went back to the university for Connected Futures workshop conference call and field trip to Jokaydia in SL.
The CPsquare bridge has problems, I could get in via Skype but could not be heard, several others were in the same state. Tried the 0870 number for the bridge - but that kept giving me the number unobtainable signal. Eventually John rang me and patched me in, so I could talk about Muvenation and LLL3D, while Jo Kay's technical problems were sorted.
We then moved into SL, where I know voice doesn't work from the university, across the group most were able to hear, some could talk, but at least one could do neither, so we kept up a stream in the chat reort what Jo was telling us and picking out questions.
All in all the field trip was a great experience, and I guess handling communication problems is an important aspect of a connected futures.

I am wondering when we will be back online at home, and I am grateful for my mobile broadband dongle, even if it isn't up to running SL. The next Connected Futures conference call is due at a time when I will be in a hotel in Brussels, I've requested a room with wi fi access, any bets if I will be able to get online?
