BZWingZero: Does anybody else use the StumbleUpon extension for Firefox?
rmmlg08: what does it do
BZWingZero: You pick categories and it will take you to random websites in those categories
rmmlg08: hmm
BZWingZero: It is quite detremintal to sleep.
BZWingZero: You just keep hitting the stumble button over and over.
BZWingZero: One of the categories I have is "Space News", and the other night, it brought me to the seds.org homepage.
rmmlg08: nice
BZWingZero: You can rate sites with a thumbs up or thumbs down to further tailor your stubles to your likes.
rmmlg08: like pandora

lizeeb3: Jake and Carissa can't make it tonight
lizeeb3: I didn't recieve anything for the agenda, so is there anything you want to discuss?
Viridis321: what should I discuss at this week's CoC meeting lol?
BZWingZero: Plans for the new year and projects (and how far progression is)
Viridis321: I like that
lizeeb3: I would have it be about strong initial semster activites to re-interest members
Viridis321: that works
lizeeb3: (one idea)
Viridis321: ok, I like them 
Viridis321: those ideas that is
rramadas009 has left the room.
lizeeb3: it is usually most productive to have them discuss ideas and then list them at the end of the session
rramadas009 has entered the room.
Viridis321: I can also send it out in a meetings afterwards for redundancy 
rramadas009 has left the room.
rmmlg08: saying things multiple times doubles the probability of getting it across
BZWingZero: aye
lizeeb3: yeah
Viridis321: that is true...I need to keep on top of everyone about the Chapter Updates due and posting them on the wiki
rramadas009 has entered the room.
rramadas009 has left the room.
rramadas009 has entered the room.
lizeeb3: how is posting the minutes been going?
Viridis321: nobody has posted them yet or emailed them to me
Viridis321: I'm hoping it's just because of the holidays...I've been out of town for the last week and half myself
rramadas009 has left the room.
Viridis321: but it's all set up for them to post and I explained in the email I sent out
lizeeb3: Last year I did them myself (as chapter affairs)
Viridis321: that's probably what I should do
rramadas009 has entered the room.
Viridis321: just to make sure they get up there
rramadas009 has left the room.
lizeeb3: Ok good
lizeeb3: Any other topics of discussion?
Viridis321: oh, I haven't been around for a while to find out about this but...do we have an excel sheet or something with all of the contact info for the board
Viridis321: email, phone, etc.
rmmlg08: I think we forgot to do that this year
rmmlg08: but no better time than now to do it (unless I just forgot that we had)
lizeeb3: No, I don't think we did
lizeeb3: I'll take care of that right now
lizeeb3: Anything else?
BZWingZero: If you see an interesting space- or SEDS-related story let either me or Arka know so we can put it in the NOVA
dandersonn43: Think anyone will see the 'SEDS USA newsletter' at http://blogs.seds.org/?
BZWingZero: Maybe.
BZWingZero: Looks like as good a place as any to post it.
rmmlg08: I've been shooting e-mails out to seds-discuss, seds-chapters, seds-announce, seds-alumni, and the board of advisors
rmmlg08: regarding nova updates
BZWingZero: How do you send something to those mailing lists?
rmmlg08: you need to be a member I think
BZWingZero: I recieve emails from them.
rmmlg08: then you should be able to
lizeeb3: try sending it and if it won't let you, Ryan or I or Kirk can approve it
BZWingZero: Will do, thanks.
lizeeb3: also, have the alumni been responding to any of your emails?
rmmlg08: I've mainly been sending notifications regarding nova since I do it after I post it
lizeeb3: directed to Ryan
rmmlg08: largely because I do necessarily do it right after you e-mail it to me
rramadas009 has entered the room.
rmmlg08: the alums not so much
rmmlg08: but a number of the advisors did
rmmlg08: saying they were excited to be helping out
lizeeb3: ok
lizeeb3: I thought I would start with them for the They Were There project
rmmlg08: that would be great
lizeeb3: Also, I thought we should do the monthly reports again
lizeeb3: So, January would be the first month.  For those that were not on the board last year, just send an email to sedsexec of what you accomplished the past month and what you will be wokring on during the next month.
lizeeb3: The Gantt charts should be your guide and I will send out reminders of when they are due.
lizeeb3: Does this seem reasonable?
dandersonn43: /me nods
rmmlg08: yep
BZWingZero: aye
lizeeb3: good
Viridis321: yep
lizeeb3: Ok.  Other business or announcements?
dandersonn43: Dameon, what meetings do you have transcripts for?
dandersonn43: Any of them?
dandersonn43: Since I have the first one.
Viridis321: I don't have any transcripts...just minutes
Viridis321: and so far, I think that one is the only one
dandersonn43: K
Viridis321: because the last CoC meeting was pretty informal
Viridis321: actually...the last meeting was about the chapter updates...thta long email explaining how to post the chapter updates on the wiki
Viridis321: so those would be the minutes for that meeting...two total
rmmlg08: I have transcripts for anything I've been to
dandersonn43: /me nods
Jedi8798 has entered the room.
rmmlg08: we might as well post everything as long as we have it
Jedi8798: (sorry for being late, had a job)
rmmlg08: even if it is informal
lizeeb3: I agree - even if it is the transcript and not actual minutes
lizeeb3: Alright.  Other business or updates/announcements?
Viridis321: speaking of transcripts...
Viridis321: how do we save them on aim?
Viridis321: lol
dandersonn43: Trillian saves them by default.
Jedi8798: File
Jedi8798: Save
Viridis321: lol...that sounds easy
lizeeb3: some AIM versions have the loggng function but I am not sure if that works for chatrooms
Jedi8798: you can save your session just by file save
Jedi8798: same with any AIM conversation
Jedi8798: will save the entire conversation/chat up to the point you click save
rmmlg08: gaim's works for everything
rmmlg08: (kind of disturbing that I log all my electronic conversations)
Viridis321: lol
BZWingZero: Trillian logs all as well.
Jedi8798: lol
Jedi8798: note to self: dont share my plans for world domination with Ryan
BZWingZero: lol
rmmlg08: or at least make sure I delete the necessary portions afterward
Jedi8798: 
rmmlg08: and hope if turns out better than nixon
rmmlg08: anyway, we diverge
Jedi8798: slightly
Jedi8798: 
lizeeb3: haha
lizeeb3: Last chance for questions and updates
lizeeb3: anyone?
lizeeb3: Alright.  Remember, we aren't meeting next week and the week after we will resume the normal schedule.
