You're in charge. Set a date and time. Sometime mid next week, like Wednesday at 7:00 pm. I that OK with everyone? And, what is WorldBoard? I think I'll let my partner Jim Spohrer field that one -- I'm just in charge of WB Interface and AR Microdisplay technologies: From: What comes after the World Wide Web WorldBoard is a proposed planetary augmented reality system that facilitates innovative ways of associating information with places. Short-term the goal is to allow users to post messages on any of the six faces of every cubic meter (a hundred billion billion cubic meters) of space humans might go on this planet (see personal web pages when you look at someone's office door; label interesting plants and rocks on nature trails). Long-term WorldBoard allows users to experience any information in any place, co-registered with reality. WorldBoard could be developed in four steps: (1) WorldBoard servers associate information (a personal, password protected Web page) with any plane at any location around the planet, (2) WorldBoard clients with "plus or minus one meter location sense" allow Web pages from the WorldBoard server to be browsed and authored, (3) WorldBoard glasses with "context sense" and head & eye tracking capabilities allow information to appear fixed and co-registered with reality, and (4) WorldBoard services archive information and design information spaces both indoors (offices, homes) and outdoors (national parks, tourist sites)...
