[bestbits] Ease of Remote Participation in the Brazil IGF

[Janna Anderson]

I agree that there's too much of a bar to remote participation - more than ever before for IGF - and it is definitely cutting people out. I keep getting notices that rooms aren't available or not "active" when I can see on Twitter that people are posting photos and conversations about what's going on inside them. I have been watching Twitter instead - not even close to a good alternative.

Remote Participation requires a separate registration apart from Registration in the intgovforum.org<http://intgovforum.org> website and as a participant in the IGF. The rooms are password protected.  Each room requires a separate? password

Once in the room, I find that the audio does not work. ( I was told that the Conference room is new, so the organizers probably have some difficulties here ) But why would the rooms require an entry password?  ICANN's remote participation, in comparison, is set up for participants to join easily.
