The ISWorld Net Virtual Meeting Center (VMC) is pleased to announce our
inaugural discussion series. The first discussion series will focus on
collaborative work. A special guest will focus on a particular aspect of
collaborative work and systems during a real time session. The sessions
are scheduled to run on every Monday starting on April 6 at
21:00 UTC (5pm EDT, 2pm PDT). You are invited to participate and
interact with the leaders in the field! All you need to participate
is a web browser. The current list of guests and topics include

topic information and biographical sketch of each guest moderator.

You are invited to register for a session by visiting the VMC web site.
