Did people ever try virtual LW meetups, and if so, how well does it work, what are the issues and what technological advances would make such meetups viable?

• Interest in video-conference discussion about sequences and/​or virtual meetups?

• LessWrong virtual meetup this Saturday evening

• Online Meetups (Megameetup Telepresence Results)

I haven’t tried a virtual LW meetup, or heard of one, but it seems worth trying if it fits your situation.
